Although i like the ease of certain aspects of it, i was not to happy with the problems i encountered when i upgraded to 7.2 and all the kernels i built after that .. .. i had been throwing around the idea of going over to fBSD for a while .. considering i have a slight background in BSD oh so many years ago before my computers got takin by "THE MAN" while i was in high skool. But, considering i just got a divorce and the current operations my job have going on over seas right now i dont have the time and the want to deal with the heartache and dispair i will get tryin to bring a fBSD workstation/server online. So in saying that .. im lookin for LiNUX distro, that i can have up and running in about 2 weeks, perferably with an rpm type capability... but i can do without if need be.. any suggestions?

You obviously need some 'better' advice ;) Debian Woody has most
everything you could ask for, it is up to 8 cdroms, most users do a net
install with either the 3rd cd ( 2.4.17bf kernel, ext3, reiserfs) or
just cd # 1 which is a 2.2 kernel/ext2. The cdroms are available ( I
have the 8 Woody iso's) if bandwidth is an issue, otherwise a net
install is a nice way to go.
