Hi, I'm newbie to alpha architecture (so newbie I don't even know hot to
spell it ;-) and for the last six months I've had RedHat 7 installed on
my alphaserver 300. YES, it's really old... but it works very good...
and it's certainly usefull where I have it.
I was willing to do a system update (you know, installing new kernel,
new GUI, new daemosn like apache, samba, sendmail, php, bugzilla,
gforge, etc) But I oticed that my current installation is REALLY broken.
The gui won't come up (don't know why... I'm trying to figure it out),
samba hangs up every time I try to connect with my windows machine and
apache does not start at the startup (even though I put the proper lines
in the rc script)
Like my subject explains, I want to ask wich distro you consider better
(so I download and Install). About the daemons... well, you know I'll
get the later versions of everyone (latest stable) and the kernel is a
big HUGE issue here... I want a good and new kernel... but If I try to
install the 2.5 I'm sure I'll break my instalation, at least once or
twice...
Thanks a lot.
