This is in regards to the part of the install where you choose xdm, kdm, etc.. (in rc.conf I think) What's the difference? I'd like to use KDE 3 and fluxbox, which will handle both?

What's installed at the end of the install guide? Will KDE 3 be there? I assume I install fluxbox later on my own, but KDE?

Which fs do you guys like best - reiser, ext3, or XFS?

Thanks for your time

-KDM handles both I think
-Nope, but there is a Desktop Configuring Guide also
-ext3, read the installation instructions and you know why ;-)

:lol: Don't know if that helps me to decide! :D

What about XFS - the install guide really makes that one sound great (even above ext3) Thanks for the quick reply!
