The original creator of Gentoo gave up Linux for sometime and went to FreeBSD and thus inspired the use of the ports system amogst other Gentoo components. Having said that, I also use FreeBSD and am a Gentoo Linux user. My recommendation is to stick with and go with FreeBSD 8 + flash.My reason being is that if you're going to learn one operating system don't give up until you've exausted all means necessary and it appears that this is not the case. As others have said, stay away from all Red Hat based systems (Fedora, CentOS, Enterprise Linux) I've never used Debian but I hear their developers are some of the best in the business. I wish you good luck. > > _______________________________________________ > freebsd-chat@freebsd.org mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-chat > To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-chat-unsubscribe@freebsd.org" > > >
