Hiya,
I don't want to cause an arguement, but I don't like
many of the current distrubutions. Mostly due to the amount of software and set
up of some of the software. I have tried such as SuSE 7.1 on minimum but I still
don't like it. I know I can alter it then but i'd prefer to install everything
myself, well almost. I have looked at linuxfromscratch.org but not sure if I
want to install from nothing, prefer an initial system.
Ok the real question is, is
there a simple (up to date) distrubution that gets a basic system on with say a
command line and a gcc? I can get the rest installed, I don't want 250mb of
software on as an initial install of a distro.
The second point is, I have a
computer with 5 2Gig SCSI drives (Running on Adaptec 2940) and a 100mb IDE disk.
So I need to boot of the IDE disk and then use the SCSI for the rest. Going to
be run as a general purpouse Server for myself, while I work mainly (SORRY) on a
Windows 2000 computer which uses the Server.
Can anyone please advice me on
mount points etc, just never set Linux up on multiple hard disks...
Thanks,
Steve
