Iv been using various distros of linux since readhat 5.2. suse, FreeBSD, ect...and previously slackware, although I liked slack, it dident handle dependencies and who has time for that, and with what I use a computer for i never needed to mess with it much, and Iv been conserned with how slack has been maintained lately,<nobr> <wbr></nobr>....so on a whim I tried lunar on a hd I tore out of an old tivo like satillite tv box, not really expecting much, and lo and behold I have found what Iv been looking for in a Linux OS all along.
its starts small, fast, you load what you need, and after a while you have a hella customized system compiled from source and optimized,
the package managment system is nice, Im sold on it! Im sorry to hear about the authors experiance, I botched my first install as well, but if followed to the letter, it goes flawlessly, at least it did for me, after installing, and up dating, I did the ol' lin XOrg and lin WindowMaker, then after the<nobr> <wbr></nobr>.xinitrc file was in my<nobr> <wbr></nobr>/home/$USER.....BAM!!
granted, it aint no Knoppix....., but some things are worth the wait, CHEERS!!!<nobr> <wbr></nobr>:)
