Simple question. Which distribution was your introduction?

For me, it was SLS Linux in '92-93, followed relatively naturally by Slackware, which was followed by Redhat.

    I did my first distribution download via the modem pool at the University where I worked. Next time I used my head and just brought a stack of floppies in with me and set one of the SunOS boxes running a script writing disks. It would write one, eject it, then beep to tell me to feed it the next disk.

    It wasn’t long after that that I replaced the main server in the research lab (a Microvax II) with a 486 running Redhat.
