Slackware tried to be the most 'UNIX like' of the linux distros. I would say it file structure layout is the closest you come to a FreeBSD like system. I used Debian. I'm not sure it Slackware has a Alpha version. Redhat and Caldera are the furthest for FreeBSD, IMHO. > -----Original Message----- > From: Mikhail Teterin [SMTP:mi@aldan.algebra.com] > Sent: Friday, September 10, 1999 2:07 PM > To: questions@freebsd.org; alpha@freebsd.org > Subject: most FreeBSD-like Linux > > Hi!
