I concur. I use FC for my desktop / laptop, and Scientific Linux (another RHAS rebuild) for our cluster and servers. For high performance computing you are not concerned with the latest greatest version of xwindows or grub, but more concerned with stability. RHAS rebuild projects give us that stability ( I'm still running 2.6.9-34EL ). But for my desktop where I am tweaking this, compile test programs, evaluating software for other users, its good to be on the bleeding edge, even if sometimes you get cut... :-) - Donald Tripp ---------------------------------------------- HPC Systems Administrator High Performance Computing Center University of Hawai'i at Hilo 200 W.
