They all work fine. It's only a matter of price and cpu speed

Is there instructions for updating 13.0 to 13.0.2 posted somewhere? A suggested method?

Trying to keep my Salix install unbroken.

Merry Christmas and best wishes for 2010.

In this case, the changes are not so drastic that you could break anything.
as root:
slapt-get -u
& then:
slapt-get --upgrade

New 13.0.2a iso images have been released that fix the bug with the autoinstaller and hard drives bigger than 15GB that is mentioned in the first post. You can find those in the download page (link) and they should replace the 13.0.2 iso images. If you have already downloaded one of the 13.0.2 images and you don't want to do another download, just keep in mind to not use the autoinstall feature with hard drives bigger than 15GB and select the install option in the installer, which will let you specify any paritioning scheme using cfdisk.

Why do we even have this Ubuntu crap?

First, I wouldn't associate Ubuntu (or any other Linux distro for that matter) with crap.

Second, not everyone is a 'geek' like you...

LOL! Where would the fun be in that??? We need more smileys for the forum. Maybe something with beer.

I found this list of distributions: http://www.linux.com/directory/Distributions
I don't know if you want to add Salix there or what you want to write so I didn't do it myself.

I hope it will help spread the word.

Congratulations again and good luck!
