If the hardware is really bad then a worst-case scanerio is to use a Red Hat kernel when running Debian. A kernel is a kernel and with a bit of tweaking they'll all work. I've had Debian running on Compaq servers, never had a problem with it. I suggest sticking with Debian, and also considering other options for server vendors. Dell doesn't give any attitude about which distribution to use, and I think that their servers are probably better than Compaq anyway. -- http://www.coker.com.au/selinux/ My NSA Security Enhanced Linux packages http://www.coker.com.au/bonnie++/ Bonnie++ hard drive benchmark http://www.coker.com.au/postal/ Postal SMTP/POP benchmark http://www.coker.com.au/~russell/ My home page
