Computer crash recovered…now running a new distro!

January 19th, 2006 Leave a comment Go to comments

It’s been a pretty eventful week. In my attempt to do a simple re-install turned into a crash, coupled with data loss, turning into a distro change. I was running Fedora Core and now I’m running a debian-based system called ubuntu linux.

For the most part, I like this MUCH better than Fedora. With Fedora, I constantly had to reinstall the whole distro because they would come out with a new version. Even though ubuntu is still bleeding edge, it supports older versions.

I’ve also found the community of support for ubuntu much nicer and more supportive than that of the Fedora community. Not really sure what the difference is, but for the most part, I’m finding the speed to be pretty impressive.

I’ve copied everything over and now about to reinstall windows…so that I can play The Matrix Online.

So that’s it for now. You can all thank for reminding me to post. Just as an FYI, I will be making a transition to start blogging on my personal website: http://www.mikesoh.com.

That’s all for now!
