I tried yellowdog, it installed well, but I didn't like the setup of the
gui, I've tried Gentoo, and while it taught me many glorious things
about setting up linux, it became tedious after a while. And now I've
retreated to Mandrake (10.1 Beta). There are a few annoying bugs, and
unless you like Mandrake I don't know if I'd recommend it, but I enjoy
it.
