    Which is your Favourite Linux?

    How sad. That was just yesterday that he posted it. I understood that it was on a short list of distributions approved by the FSF. Maybe someone there can keep it going. I will send the link to their mailing list.

    Boot loader slowed

    I thought that the problem might be caused by my making a swap space inside an extended partition. Since I did this operation on my linux system I defer to another forum: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-hardware-18/swap-primary-or-extended-548016/ The only boot problem mentioned...
