6 Distros in 4 days

QuickImage Category Technical Bitching

I really wanted to start using Linux; but this is getting silly. Perhaps I'll try again in a few months when Fedora 8, Suse 10.3, and Ubuntu 7.10 are ready.

Just for the record, I've tried Fedora, Suse, Ubuntu, Edubuntu, Knoppix, and Xubuntu. All of them install on my particular hardware, but none of them will recognize the hardware controlled RAID array after installation (GRUB Loader error 25).

Sigh.

Linux is definitively "not ready for prime time." Too bad.

I think we might have been able to get Debian to see the raid drive we had on our server, but it had so many other buggy things that we finally gave up on it too.
