Somewhere around here I have a disk with the Linux From Scratch that I
started many, many moons ago. :/ (Not that I'd claim to be an expert hacker
or anything though)...
BTW- I'm seeing a trend of Corporate America moving from RH and other
'supported' distros to Debian as the staff (and Management) gets
more comfortable with Linux. Debian package design and stability
in a full production environment seem to be driving factors.
Anyone else see the same?
