Man I just installed Gentoo yesterday, took me practically two days cause it compiles everything ....but its ****in worth it...
Anyway MDK, RH and many others are GUI-installs, nice and easy... but heh I even don't have a gui (X) installed on the gentoo now.. I must say I learned more in two days installing gentoo from prompt then being busy with gui-distros the lat months...
But like i said before... choose what you like... and what you can.
Next one on mah list is Slackware :D
iv installed Free BSD like 8 times, so im ok with no GUI based installs.
i started out with redhat, and i have used mandrake and slackware, personally i think they are all pretty much the same, i don't really think it makes a difference which distro you start off with as long as you are willing to be patient and willing to learn and ask questions and trouble shoot, (as you would have to do with any operating system).
Or RTFM. and your right, they are all the same, unless you mean install and updates, thats the only real difference your going to notice.Quote:
