I’ve never been a big fan of rpm-based Gnu/Linux distributions, since I’ve always preferred the stability of Debian and Debian based distros, with their great dpkg system. The problem with Debian on Macbooks is that I do not see both the stability and performance anymore, as I have to use Lenny/Sid. Etch is too old …

It’s a very long time since I abandoned Ubuntu, 1 year and 9 months being precise, although I continued to use Ubuntu derived distros. I decided today to give Ubuntu 8.10 beta a try.

A volte bisogna dare spazio e provare qualcosa di poco conosciuto ma che promette bene. In questo caso, ho dato spazio alla semi-sconociuta distro Vlos 1.2, conosciuta come VidaLinux (http://desktop.vidalinux.com). E’ una distribuzione otimizzata per molte piattaforme, nel mio caso i686. L’installer che utilizza é Anaconda, sfruttato da RedHat e poi Fedora. L’installazione é quindi …
