As somebody who's gone from: RedHat 5/6 -> Slackware -> Gentoo -> Debian -> Ubuntu -> Debian. Debian (and it's derivatives) is the best of breed and will always be my distro of choice. Great job yall!
- Steltek 3y agoYou need to be more specific with Red Hat :). I'm guessing you meant like "GNOME 1.2" era Red Hat that came on a CheapBytes CD.
- acegopher 3y agoMy first distro was Red Hat 5 as well. It is disambigous, it was called "Red Hat Linux version 5". Red Hat Linux went to version 9 I believe before it split into RHEL (Red Hat Enterprise Linux) and Fedora.
- sv0 3y agoI have almost the same way: Redhat 5 -> Mandrake -> Gentoo -> FreeBSD -> Slackware, and finally Debian Etch in April 2007. I've been using Debian for the latest 16 years and am very happy with it.
