I guess it could have been part of this thread but I don't know any one well
enough to cut across it

Odd, that's exactly why I started using Mandrake... (-:

Saw this anouncement today

ABIT is proud to announce our Linux distribution, Gentus?. Gentus? is
 a full featured and full powered Linux operating system"
 http://www.gentus.com/

Hyperbole or what?

I guess we will see quite a bit more of this.  I am sorely tempted myself to
give it a try. I'm sure I am not the only one who
has an Abit board  with ATA66 support they cant get running who would consider
it.
It just looks like a RH or Mandrake? Distro modifided to make ATA66 support
simpler.

Which of the above to groups would it fall into?
