Slack 9.1 Flies on my BP'er

Post by PDR60 »

All I have to say is WOW!!!! After running the rpm based distros for over a year, I can see why everyone loves Slackware and Gentoo so much. After recompiling a fresh install of 9.1 to enable smp, That box just flies. I run Fluxbox and it is really impressive. I have a Tyan 230T with dual gigs that runs Mandrake and it will be getting a fresh install of Slack this weekend. I really like the way I can control exactly what hits the disk. I can only imagine what Gentoo is like. I have already converted our red hat 8 samba server at work over to Slack 9.2. I just love how easy it is to put a minimal install in and watch that server set the wire on fire with the speed. Its so coollll!!!!!! I like samba 3 also. real slick.
