I don't know what you all are on about. Personally, I am on the same "install" of Debian since I first installed it on my primary home machine (and work for that matter) I have transferred these installs from machine to machine to machine using scp or a cpio pipe through ssh etc... It just works. I make the changes needed and voila. This particular build, has gone from a Pentium-166MHz to a PentiumPro-180MHz to a PentiumMMX-233MHz to a PentiumII-300MHz to an Athlon T-Bird 900MHz to an Athlon T-Bird 1400MHz to an Athlon XP1900+ to an Athlon XP2500+ to an Athlon XP2800+... where I am currently using it. Each machine had a different Motherboard, NIC, Video Card, Disk (the PP180 had SCSI everything) systems etc... Sure, many, many, "dslect updates && apt-get -u dist-upgrades" later here I am. Now, I used to use RedHat as my primary Linux... but I drank the Kool-Aid thanks to Karsten M. Self and Peter Whysall, a few years ago. I went to Debian on the 900MHz ns it being my secondary Linux machine, when I got a new 1200MHz for Windows. And RedHat disappeared from my home. -- greg, [EMAIL PROTECTED] The technology that is Stronger, better, faster: Linux
