Sorry, but I do not now, nor will I ever use Mandrake. I despise any
linux distribution that tries as hard as Mandrake does to isolate the
user from the config files. As far as I'm conserned, Mandrake is not
even a real linux distribution.

There's two Distributions I'd be interested in hearing about:
RedHat/Fedora
Gentoo

If you know how to accomplish that with either of these, I'm all ears.
