Just to show you my madness...Here is a picture (click pictures for a larger, more detailed view) of most of the Linux and BSDs I have downloaded and burned over the last few weeks for evaluation/playing. Missing is Gentoo, which I only used with VMware Server and used straight from an .iso image.
List of OSes:
- SimplyMEPIS 6.0
- SUSE 10.1
- Debian 3.1r2
- CentOS 4.3 (both DVD and CDs)
- PCBSD 1.2
- Fedora Core 5 (both DVD and CDs)
- OpenFiler 2.0b2
- FreeBSD 6.1
- Ubuntu 6.06.1 LTS (CD)
- Kubuntu 6.06.1 LTS (CD)
- Ubuntu 6.06 Server LTS (CD)
- Ubuntu 6.06 LTS (DVD)
I have CentOS on both CDs and DVD because I originally downloaded the DVD for installation on my notebook. Then when I wanted to build a play-server with my Athlon XP box, I found that I only had a CD-ROM drive in there. So, I had to download the CDs for installation on the Athlon box.
As for Fedora Core, it was the other way around. I downloaded the CDs for upgrading (and blowing up) of my Athlon box when it was serving up ultramookie.com. Then when I got the notebook, it was easier to install/re-install from DVD (FC does this scan of each CD as it is inserted and it takes a long time).
