Sounds like a good way to start. You get familar with how a certain family works, then you can apply the information learned to similar distributions. It would simplify the harder part of the learning curve. I've looked at Ubuntu and BSD briefly. They're different enough that I stayed with something more familiar to me (Red Hat based), close enough that I could *work* out much of how they did their tricks, but not close enough that I could just do it without having to work it out. There's two many distributions to try them all. If you attempted it, you'd never really find out much about them. It'd be like those scant reviews where you see someone briefly look at something then write something virtually pointless about it. -- [tim@bigblack ~]$ uname -ipr 2.6.23.1-10.fc7 i686 i386 Using FC 4, 5, 6 & 7, plus CentOS 5.
