Hi,
that's what I did, I tried centos, but more: during a consultancy
assignment I got few years ago I had to work with an IT service provider
that supported (and supports nowadays) only centos and opensuse within its
cloud and virtualization services.
I must say that I had no problem at all when t

I jump around a lot. I usually reinstall my OS every five or six
months. I do it primarily as a security issue -- if my machine has
been compromised and I don't know it, at least every few months I
*know* I'm clean. What I've found is that the "pain" of installation
varies from release to releas

Dear Dario,
happy to know you hadn't any problem, unfortunately that was not my case
and often for this reason: even if I was keeping only the two last kernel
versions, my boot partition always suffered, in case of updating the whole
system, of disk space lacking for the new release. I've tried to

Mostly, but not always. 28 did not support the latest

have the next version back.

Debian tends to distribute older versions of packages, where Fedora ships
"bleeding edge" versions. It depends what your needs are. Do you need a
