What a nice guy, apologised, is sending a pressed disk (whatever that is?) and
some CD's which apparently I'll have to use to update the pressed disk
install.
Should be fun!

I'd be interested to hear which Linux Distros
[ This seems to have broadened to all Unices ]
you use and how do you rank yourself?
(Expert, Show-off, amateur, beginner, or nerdy)
Go on..... I'll start meself.....
1. Tim - will install Mandrake 10.1 - Beginner.
2. sparkes - Debian / Ubuntu / OpenBSD / LFS /
myown ;-) - been round the block
3. Ron - Gentoo / Ubuntu / SuSE - knew the block when
it was a field.
4. Ade - Fedora / Ubuntu / Suse - erm, Bald [ we
need locking! ]
>
5. Woo - Minix, Linux-FT, Red Hat, Fedora
(current), OpenBSD & Ubuntu(looking likely) Good at
installations. Early stage of conversion from VMS
to *x. Love the concepts & the Linux community; hate
the syntax.
6. Pete C Fedora / Suse / White box (under
VMware)/and hopefully will take posession of Debian on
DVD, tomorrow, £32.15 inc postage and packaging.
7. Simonb: Fedora 3/ ubuntu/ own linux as well as
freeBSD, IRIX, HP-UX. Brought into it 9yrs ago, got
voluntary position setting up HP-UX machines when in>
yr10 of secondary school and compiled my first kernel
in the days of the 2.2 kernel.
8. James - Fedora / Red Hat / ARMLinux (although
not very much the latter) - Not as experienced as Ron
9. Baza - Ubuntu Linux geeky amateur
10. Adam - Debian / Ubuntu. Skills are middling, I'm
very capable but there are a number of gaping holes.
Not as experienced as James
11. Helen - Mandrake / Ubuntu (sort of) - very amateur
12. Mo SuSE-beginner-intermediate
13. Kevan - SuSE 9.2/Madrake 10.1 (very little used
though) +I am ashamed to admit Win 2000 on the family
PC. I would calss myself as intermediate now
as I've been around the block and learned very
little. I have had Corel Linux up and running in the
past and been a beta tester for Xandros. I just
love to use Linux :-)
14. Rob - SuSE 9.2 - experience: absolute beginner
but at least capable of tidying up long mail threads
;)
15. David - Ubuntu / Sarge. Experience: Capable of
nearly anything, but lacking any C programming skills.
Started with RedHat 5.[02]{1} then moved
to Slackware in 97/98. Dabbled once with some *BSDs,
didn't think much of them. Part time Solaris9 admin a
few years ago.
16. Gary - SuSE 9.2 - Stared with suse 6.2 and tried
a few other distro's over the years, but I always
prefered SuSE. I'm no expert, but I can get by
with the help of google and this group.
17. Fizz - Gentoo (debian, SuSE, *BSD) - Messed around
with various linux/unix distros for about seven years,
never found a perfect distro and always found linux a
lot of hard work compared with 'other operating
systems ;)' on the desktop. Know my way around but
wouldn't claim to be an expert.
