The release is bound to be amazing, with the return of kernel-secure, a 65MB minimum install, hotplug device support, encrypted filesystems and more!"
not that redhat 7.2 is bad , it's nice .. but really dated... they still only allow up2date go to 4.2.9 while 4.2.17 was out for mostly forever and super stable, and now 4.2.18 is even better (I can use my internal Jaz scsi again!!!!) but no.. redhat users are still crippled with running 4.2.9.
I was very impressed with the 8.2 betas... time to throw this puppy into the production environment!
Do not look at laser with remaining good eye.
I was tinkering around and thought "Oh! MDK 8.2 should be available..." So I cruised over to /. and saw nothing there "Great!" methinks, I may be ahead of the flood.

So I started downloading. @ ~350KBPS, my usual best rate... This has been slowing and I can't figure why other than..... Did that @#$%!%! post something on
Yup, story is posted.... sites are

Problem is that the Gazette article that had those was very lacking... Slackware pre-dates all of them and is considered the true hackers distro due to the fact taht it requires a much higher understanding of the underlying apps and systems (No neato-self config or gui click and drool interfaces... dont get me wrong, I like to click and drool from time to time)
.....
If you are serious about linux and power you use Slack.. all the other are just candy coated slackware...
BTW, I still have a CD of the first linux distro Yggdrasil... you dont hear of that one anymore..
well as my Leet rant finishes up I might as well do the same as the rest and put in a list of props and shouts
Nahhhh... that's for lamers....
I'll go back to my hole now..

Please wait five or six hours before downloading it. I am already downloading it now, and I don't want all you pushing in before I have fininshed. Thanks everyone!
If you UUENCODE and then mirror (post on slashdot) the iso images, I'll mod you up even more!
Got friends?
