Your First Distro?

[The Real Dave]

What was your first ever Linux distro? Where did it all begin for you?

The first time I ever offically used Linux, was after reading an article about building a $72 PC, which, due to its low power, used Damn Small Linux (DSL) (http://www.damnsmalllinux.org/)

First time I used it was in its embedded form, within XP. I thought it was amazing =] So fast, feature packed, and only 50Mb :o

My first proper usage of Linux however, was with Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy Heron, which I installed after Windows XP decided to format its own partition :confused: It gave me back a computer which seemed to want to be a large paperweight. Ever since 8.04, I havn't looked back, and loved every minute of my Linux Experience, even the nail bitting "what in the bluest of blue hells is it doing" moments :D

So, what was you first Linux?

[RookieUbuntuUser58]

First was Ubuntu 8.10 (Intrepid Ibex). Then went to Crunchbang Linux. Then back to Ubuntu 9.04. Then finally settled on Crunchbang 9.04 since yesterday. Between there are some stints with OSX and Windows XP (which I still keep as dual boot).

[Whiffle]

Mandrake 8.1. It didn't go very well at all, ended up back in Windows. Then some time later I had friends that were running Gentoo, and I was like, hey why not. So I did a stage 1 of Gentoo and have been using linux of various flavors ever since. Gentoo forced me to understand the system, where as Mandrake tried to do it all for me (and failed), which is probably why I got hooked.

[SuperSonic4]

Mandriva 2008.0

since then I've always used KDE on my desktop

[swoll1980]

My first distro was Ubuntu 7.04 feisty Fawn. I had know Idea what Linux was , nor had I heard of it. This sounds corny, but it actually changed my life.

I was a salesman when I found Linux, but it got me interested.I started learning everything I could about it (which I'm not even close to finishing).

I lost my job when the recession hit. Rather than going out, and finding another sales job, I started college to became a networking security specialist. I don't think any of this would have happened. If I hadn't stumbled upon Ubuntu's website.

[.Maleficus.]

Ubuntu 6.06. I've distro hopped ever since but have finally found the right distro for me with Arch.

[sarfarazkazi]

The first ever distro I used was Mandrake 9.2 (Dolphin Release) which had a KDE desktop! It ran on my PC for close to a year!

[qamelian]

My first distro was SuSE 5.2, back in the days before SuSE was owned by Novell. The distro was on a giveaway CD on the cover of PC Plus magazine and I installed it on my trusty 80MHz 486 DX out of curiousity more than anything else. The default install did not include a gui environment. That had to be installed separately. And sound support required me to compile drivers from source. It took me 3 days to get to the point where I had working sound and a fully functioning XFree86 (xorg having not been forked yet!).

I spent a year using fvwm as my window manager before I started playing around with alternatives. In some ways, I miss those "good old days". Neither KDE nor Gnome have worked as well for me in recent years as they did back in the day of KDE 2.2 (the most stable release of KDE ever, in my opinion) and Gnome 1.4 (before the DE started getting over-simplified to the point of sometimes feeling restrictive).

[.nedberg]

Mandriva 2005 LE PowerPack
Then Mandriva 2006, before I made the switch to Kubuntu 6.06. I have used Kubuntu ever since, but also keep a machine with Ubuntu and one with Mythbuntu (but the last one will have to go this summer!).

[wojox]

Ubuntu 8.10 Intrepid Server. Then decided to wipe out Windows and install the 8.10 Desktop on my other machine.

[bfc]

Redhat 4.0 was my first distro.

[Adam N]

Congratulations :)

My first linux distro was ubuntu 8.10. I bought a netbok that said it had linux, it turned out to be eeebuntu which i hated so i got a linux iso which turned out to be for ubuntu and her i am now. :)

[WorfSOM]

Slax.

I needed a way to access some files from a corrupt copy of Windows XP, and i heard about a small distro that could be used as a live cd to accomplish this.

[juancarlospaco]

Ubuntu, i don't remember release.

[lonniehenry]

Ubuntu 5.10 Breezy Badger. Unbeleivably unstable but fun to play with. I have kept a test partition for the newest development version ever since. Haven't had windows for a couple of years.

[Warren Watts]

Fedora Core 4

In early 2005 I cobbled together a bunch of old hardware to build a basic server running FC4. I downloaded the four (yes, four!) ISOs and made about six coasters before I figured out how to burn an ISO. LOL

Fedora actually made the install pretty easy, although the installer asked a zillion questions that as a Linux newbie I had no idea how to answer.

The only hard drives I had available were two old 4 GB drives, and the Fedora installer let me combine them using LVM into one single logical drive. If I had had a better understanding (or for that matter, any understanding at all) of linux directory structure, I would have just split the directories between the two drives and avoided using LVM.

I grew to absolutely hate Fedora's package manager, and struggled with dependencies every single time I tried to install something new. Eventually one of the two drives failed on my logical volume, borking the whole setup, and I shelved the whole project.

It wasn't until two years later when I discovered Ubuntu 7.04 that I really become serious about using linux on a day-to-day basis.

[favadi]

Redhat 9. :)

[Shpongle]

fedora 6 , i used it for a while but i got board of it (and wasnt really sure what i was doing for the most part) and went back to windows, then then i tried intripid and have been here since!

[szymon_g]

The first distro, i ever used was a PLD /Polish(ed) Linux Distribution/ with WindowMaker - friend of mine, who worked in internet cafe, let me used it. i've been sniffing girls' chats ;) it was in 2001 or 2002.
but, Red Hat Linux 7.2 was the first distro i've installed on my box (celeron 333mhz, 64 ram, hdd 10gb, s3trio/3d with 4 mb of memory) - with kde 2.x.x. (I think). Later came Mandrake 9.0, than I've small break with linux until Ubuntu 6.06 :)

[The Toxic Mite]

Xandros, it was crap.

[MikeTheC]

My first was Red Hat 4.2; however, I didn't seriously start using Linux until Fedora Core 2, and I wasn't a regular or even full-time Linux user until Ubuntu 7.04, so...

[RiceMonster]

Arch, but I lasted about a week because I didn't know what I was doing. Then I eventually went back to it after using Ubuntu for a few months, then distro hopping.

[jrusso2]

Slackware back in 1996.

[khelben1979]

Debian Slink on my Amiga 4000 which is currently "retired" since a couple of years ago. Started with the Debian version for the m68k processor and later went for ppc together with an CyberstormPPC at 233mhz.

This was 10 years ago.

[koleoptero]

Redhat 6.4

/me shivers

[Kingsley]

Dapper Drake was my first Linux install. My first burned ISO was Gentoo 2006.1. Thank goodness I didn't try to install it though.

[urosg3]

cp6linux Serbian distro, supported by Government based on Ubuntu 8.04

[mhurst102282]

My first distro was Lindows 4.0.

[ramnarayan]

fedora core 1

[ajcham]

Mandrake 9 for me, as mentioned in a previous thread/poll:

I started with Mandrake 9 back in 2003. It was a good introduction to Linux - the Mandrake Control Centre was excellent and the distro came with the best installer I've used to date (I know not everyone would agree, but for me it had just the right balance of ease of use, power and flexibility).

[Ichtyandr]

I had Linux Mandrake 7.0 back somewhere in 2000

[Mornedhel]

I used a Mandrake/Red Hat, no idea what versions, depending on what my brother would have installed on his machine. I still have vivid memories of playing xpilot on those.

The first distribution I installed myself was a Mandrake as well. I was young and didn't have access to the Internet, so needless to say it didn't go too well (it ran but I had no sound and other problems that I do not remember). Oh well, I could still play xpilot.

The first successful install was a Fedora Core 2. It ran flawlessly after some tinkering but I wasn't interested in computers enough that I'd do something with it. It was interesting but you couldn't play the games every one talked about, so I did a dual boot, and some time later I found myself never booting to FC, only Windows.

Then I found out about Ubuntu when Dapper had just come out, installed it (what the ? it works ?! and sound too ?!), and from then I've run Dapper Drake, Feisty Fawn, Gutsy Gibbon, Hardy Heron and now Jaunty Jackalope.

I've had on and off should-I-go-vanilla-Debian episodes, but never actually went further than burning a Debian iso.

I should go and try xpilot-ng.

[ddrichardson]

Slackware 2.something in mid 1995. Things have come an _long_ way, not having to calculate modelines to run X is certainly an advance.

[ratcheer]

I am pretty sure the first Linux I tried was Slackware. It was a long time ago, so I'm not sure what release it was, maybe 6.

Tim

[Tipped OuT]

@ OP

You should make a poll.

[kc3]

I had first used Mandrake 7 a long while back when my dad had bought it from Walmart (yes bought Linux at Walmart lol) than I had gotten into a couple others like RedHat and eventually SUSE than I used Windows for the longest time. After a number of years I tried out Ubuntu 9.04 and am now using Slackware 12.2 and I've been loving it :D

[magmon]

I first used ubuntu 7.04 when my XP installation had become so filled with worms and viruses that I could no longer do the simplest of tasks. To be totally honest, I didn't like it xD. I came back about a year later and tried 8.04, which I loved, and am now using mint 7.

[heroidi]

At first I dual-booted with Windows and Ubuntu 7.10 Gutsy Gibbon and then Hardy came along and i feel in love with it so never used windows again until my last windows "pharse" lets call it and i'm Happy now...

[ArchCast]

I can't remember if it was Slackware or Debian, back in 1996. But I do remember that the installation was quite painful.

[The Real Dave]

Seems that Linux distros these days are alot easier to install and configure =] :lolflag:

[ddnev45]

Red Hat 6.0

[PurposeOfReason]

Ubuntu 6.10

It was quite unstable but shortly after I went to 7.04 when it was released which, IMO, is their biggest jump ever followed by 7.04-7.10. Back when you could feel the updates. lol

[praveesh]

Fedora. It made me have Gnome. But Ubuntu made of love Gnome

[Jesus_Valdez]

Corel Linux

[The Real Dave]

Fedora. It made me have Gnome. But Ubuntu made of love Gnome


If you find any mistake in my English, please correct me

Should be "me" ? :D

[kk0sse54]

Brief spout with Ubuntu 7.10 while 8.04 was the first distro I seriously used. Quickly dropped Ubuntu and after months of distro hopping and using primarily NetBSD, Slackware, Gentoo, and Arch, I finally settled upon FreeBSD

[spcwingo]

Puppy 2.16...I ran it a while until I found Ubuntu and upgraded my system hardware wise.

[Twitch6000]

Mine would be PClinuxOS right before it went to version 2007.

However now thinking about it,I think I toyed with an old version slackware before not sure though lol.(I was young then lol)

[#11u-max]

first distro? knoppix. it crashed on startup in my virtual machine, googled linux and found ubuntu, installed 8.04 on a virtual machine, then went to 9.04 as a dual boot! haven't looked back at Whine-D`ohZZZzzzZZZ since. for some reason my laptop still uses whine-d`ohZZZzzzZZZ boot manager but, no worries! if it ain'tbroke, don`t fix it!

[Stan_1936]

Ubuntu 7.04...3 months after it was released.

[malspa]

Linspire, and played around with a Knoppix CD.

[SunnyRabbiera]

First distro I tried to install: Yoper
First distro I installed in a dual boot: Suse 9.1
First distro that I used fulltime: Mepis Linux 3.3

[Eisenwinter]

Mandrake.

[Wiebelhaus]

Debian way back when.

[JDShu]

fedora core 1

Hardcore.

I started with Knoppix live CD and then Fedora Core 3

[SirBismuth]

Seems that Linux distros these days are alot easier to install and configure =] :lolflag:

Ain't that the truth! :D

My first distro was FreeBSD, easy to to install, not so easy to get configured. But I did it, see my other post around here about that.

Then played with various versions of Suse off and on, with doses of Windows in between.

Was reintroduced to Linux with Ubuntu 8.04, and haven't looked back!.

B

[Tipped OuT]

Ubuntu 8.04

I have not used any other distro outside of the Ubuntu family yet (I tried Kubuntu).

[kpkeerthi]

I tried SUSE in 2004. Guess its version 6. Used it for 2 months and went back to Windows.

[djdarrin91]

I used Xandros first,then dabbled with Mepis and a few other distros but Ubuntu is by far my favorite.

[siimo]

Peanut Linux 9.1

Currently I use SuSE.

[raronson]

The year was 1900 and 97. I fired up my US Robotics 32kbps modem and pointed my web browser to Walnut Creek, where I downloaded Slackware Linux on to 16 floppy disks and began my fist install.

[Changturkey]

First distro ever seen: Slax
First distro tried: Fedora 7

[ahmatti]

My first distro was some version of Redhat around 1999, but I never really got the hang of it. After that I used Suse for a while just for experiments sake, but the distro that really made me a Linux user was Ubuntu 5.10. After that I've tested several others, but Ubuntu has remained my favorite, although at work I'm using OSX.

[scrapmetal]

Ubuntu 7.01 I think. :popcorn:
Now Running Ubuntu 8.04 LTS i386 on 3 machines, 9.0? duel boot plus XP pro
and Kubuntu AMD on Giga Mother boards and 1 Asus Mother board. All have 2 GB Ram,
4 - 320 GB sata 2's and 3 - 500 GB sata 2's spread around. Retroed to a 6.?? LTS Ubuntu before. Have to retro fit some of my older units yet.:D

[jprophet420]

Knoppix version old point OH!

Fedora 4 was my first install.

Slackware 12.1 was my favorite install, and Ubuntu 9.04 64bit is my current install. I'm going back to slackware when the new release comes out with full 64bit support.

I will always use Ubuntu for work as I fix PC's and the live distros kick major *** for fixing common windows problems.

[moster]

Hehe... Now when I remember..
1997 I downloaded Slackware. It had 50 MB and I downloaded it with modem with blazing speed of 3 kb/s. :)

I installed it on Pentium 166 with 16 MB RAM and when I realise it do not have even graphical interface I delete it and forgot about it for another few years.

[Warren Watts]

I downloaded Slackware Linux on to 16 floppy disks and began my fist install.

16 Floppies.... LOL

I used to have a copy of Windows 95 on floppy. Similar story...it was close to 20 floppies and took HOURS to install...

[mynameinc]

The first distro tried (LiveCD, no install): Ubuntu 8.10 Intrepid Ibex
The first distro installed: Ubuntu 9.04 Jaunty Jackalope

[HappinessNow]

Ubuntu Hoary (I remember most the Gnome logo (foot) still on the desktop instead of the Ubuntu logo)

[MasterNetra]

--My First Linux Distro, from what I can remember, was Knoppix..Didn't stay with it long. I went on to try a number of others and none at the time was good enough to replace XP, Not even Ubuntu at the time (I think it was 6.10 and it didn't have some critical driver(s) for my desktop).
--A year or so later when I got into college I met a ubuntu user in one of my classes and he mentioned Ubuntu, having forgot the first failure I checked it out, and low and behold It was the Hardy version and it did work. I still checkout other distros now and again, but thus far the only Ubuntu suits my basic needs...Mint Linux though is what I recommend to others. (with the pre-install codecs and all plus a windowish menu for easier transition.) ^.^
--Side note though I'm still anchored to XP for my Adobe CS goods and for MagicJack...for now anyway.

[Chemical Imbalance]

My very first foray into Linux was also with DSL.

I used it under a virtual machine in Windows.

I fell in love at first sight.

Afterwards I installed Mandriva and was home at last...until I discovered Ubuntu a couple years ago.

I've installed everything from Haiku to OpenSolaris and BSD to Arch, but I keep returning to Ubuntu.

[cinc]

Let's see here... and I hope my memory will work better than my first distros.

I started with Debian on a 486. I think it was version 1.2. It was definitely 1.x and it definitely felt like it. I also played with FreeBSD and NetBSD back in those days. In the late-'90s and early '00s I played with Corel and Caldera. I still have a magazine wherein Corel's CEO expresses the opinion that Corel Linux would one day be THE distro to have... shortly before they quit developing it. I also think I have the only surviving Storm Linux 2000 CD.

There was also some Redhat (before they went public... or commercial) and some newer versions of Debian during that period but between the bugs and the driver problems I sort of gave it up. I'd rather not have to learn how an OS works BEFORE I start using it and I generally have better things to do than fixing broken software. I think the last distro I tried back then was Redhat 9, though I currently have enough ethical problems with the company to avoid whatever it is they're doing now.

Since then, and until recently, I'd only ever played with Ubuntu 6.06. I'd have to say that 9.04 is the first version of Linux I've ever used which (almost) works properly and for the first time in twelve-ish years I can imagine Linux taking over a noticeable percentage of the desktop market. Of course, that assumes that nobody writes any major bugs into the next few versions (like the IPv6 bug in 9.04's kernel).

I just wish that someone would finally come up with a distro which works properly on Sparc architecture.

[halovivek]

My First Distro was RED HAT. But I fell love with ubuntu and i am using it.

[oobuntoo]

Red Hat 5.2

[waloshin]

Red Hat 9

[Clorow]

Kubuntu, which was a bad choice since all the tutorials were written for GNOME Ubuntu. It was quite confusing.

[shazbut]

Slackware something.something in 1996. Only remember the kernel version (1.3.X), which I had to recompile a few times to get devices working. In a triple boot with Win95 and OS2 Warp 4.

[Grant A.]

Ubuntu 6.06 LTS

I stuck with it for quite some time, but the out of date Firefox eventually forced me to update.

[Possum Films]

The first distro that I ever used was Ubuntu 7.04, although I only tried it from the live CD on a friend's and didn't install it because my computer was too old and couldn't run it. About a year later I tried Puppy Linux which I liked and so I decided to install it to my computer. Then I switched to Xubuntu 8.10 because I had trouble getting software for Puppy Linux. A few months ago I got a new computer (which I'm using now) which is running Ubuntu 9.04. I have also tried Debian, Damn Small Linux and Knoppix.

[~sHyLoCk~]

knoppix live cd lol

[rkirk]

Technically, the first Linux distro I ever installed was openSUSE. But I cut my teeth using PCLinuxOS and settled down to Kubuntu, later Ubuntu and I don't foresee me moving away from it anytime soon.

GNU/Linux is a powerful OS... and an infinitely interesting toy.

[Johnny B]

my first distro was slackware 8 or 9
i chose it because i liked the name
i remember repeatedly installing it to figure out what all the install options meant
then i tried every distro i could find before settling on ubuntu
and i've been 100% microsoft free since 2007

[KegHead]

Hi!

8.04 w/Dell mini 9 installed.

KegHead

[rbishop]

My first linux distro was Red Hat 7.2. I was not a hugh fan then, but I kept trying different distro's until I found Ubuntu. Since then it has been Ubuntu all the way.

[richg]

My first distro was Lindows 4.0 in a factory configured $200.00 Walmart PC I purchased online back in 12-2003. Sure eliminated a lot of heartburn. I spent many hours reading Linux forums before purchasing.
It now runs Mint 7 and is a back up PC.

Rich

[jamest09]

A very early version of RedHat, version 4 or so I believe.

[shobon]

Well, the first time I heard of linux was from my mom, whom had bought a copy of Mandrake in either the late 90's or early 00's. Boxed, had a couple CD's inside and a penguin on the box. I never really played around with it, seeing as I was like 9 or 10 at the time.

About a year or so ago, a friend of mine gave me an Ubuntu LiveCD, I think it was 7.10 or something. I tossed it on a crappy tower I had lying around and toyed around with it. However, it had no internet and sat in the corner of my room, and I only used it for the experience.

I didn't really get into linux until around March, when I got a netbook to play with. First day I got it I wiped the hard drive and tossed Ubuntu 8.10. Since then I've been distro hopping, currently on Debian Lenny.

[b@sh_n3rd]

Once I heard of clustering I decided to do some research and then I learnt about Linux and it's role in clustering. I also read that it was *free*, so I thought, "hey cool maybe I could experiment with this" and so I did some research on Linux this time and got Fedora 8. Yes, it was cool, but wasn't really performing well on my PC, so I began to doubt and later found myself Ubuntu and got a hold of Hardy Heron. It was the best of the best for me and stuck to Ubuntu until Jaunty Jackelope though later, about a week or so ago thought I need a new challenge and here I am browsing through Ubuntu Forums with a week old Arch Linux installation that's in top-form (still didn't manage to break it :D). And to think this all began some where in April 2008 with me wanting to build a cluster and now, still too stuck with linux to give up a PC. And that's my story...:D

[Kinney]

My first Linux distro was RedHat 7.3. It wasn't even the newest RedHat release at the time but it came with a Linux book I bought so I used it while I was learning.

I used RedHat up until version 9, then I went to Slackware and that is when I officially stopped dual booting with Windows. Since then the only time I use Windows at home is in a virtual machine.

I jumped around a bit before ending up with Ubuntu.

[deanerk]

Mandrake 9.2 - March 1, 2004. I had that documented when I went to a forum and posted that I was so impressed that I was able to download, burn to CD and install it and post about my success in just 5 hours, without ever having any previous Linux experience.

Spent a LOT of hours since then messing around with many, many different distros. I'm no expert, just like to tinker. Probably my biggest moment recently was convincing my wife to give Ubuntu a try on her old laptop. She's loving it now and I no longer have any Windows machines at home.

[Little Bit]

Mine is Ubuntu, just a few days ago. It's wonderful! The bestest, most wonderfulest thing ever! Why should I ever change it? <3

Totally excited newbie, twirling happily,
Amy

[shodai100]

first was Puppy Linux, then Fedora, then Ubuntu...

[clonne4crw]

Caldera OpenLinux. Played around with it back in 2004.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caldera_OpenLinux :popcorn:

[dragos240]

Ubuntu wubi 8.04, it had so many problems for me. After that I upgraded to 8.10 without wubi, and it fixed all my problems. later I tried many other distos.

[kc1di]

What was your first ever Linux distro? Where did it all begin for you?


So, what was you first Linux?

My first Linux install was of Red Hat 4.xxx something, it was a bear on the old I386 I had at the time.. finding drivers and configuration.. things have come a long way since then.
Really like 9.04 great job.
:D

[markbuntu]

I am not sure what distro it was but it was in 93 or 94 and the kernel was 0.98 or 0.99, definitely not 1.0. I remember buying the first issue of Linux Magazine a few months later and thinking, wow, this linux thing must be getting pretty big. I should have kept those first year issues....

It was a very painful experience with a superfast 13.3k modem. You just prayed nothing would go wrong during the download which took all night. It took a few weeks and one monitor fire but when i finally got x working it was just so far ahead of windows...so clean and so fast...like driving a race car.

These new mainstream distros are very good if a little bloated.

[Private_Ops]

Mine was Ubuntu 5... something I do believe. I tried it on an old laptop (which I hardly remember) and then gave up on it for a while. After starting a local vocational school (Information Technology class) where my teacher used Linux as the main OS my interest in Ubuntu jumped into high gear.

Ubuntu (and any derivatives) have been the main stay on my laptop since I got it. The desktop on the other hand has stuck to Windows (currently Windows 7) because the games I play (Red Orchestra and a few unreleased so far (I.E. SCII) do not and run under WINE.

[Dullstar]

My first one that I ended up using? Ubuntu.
The first one that I really wanted to use? Ubuntu.
First one I tried using, since my brother had already installed it on a computer? Some RedHat Linux or something. I'm pretty sure he set me up with a user account on there, but I couldn't figure out anything. :D

Ubuntu is so much easier.

[RJARRRPCGP]

Mandrake 8.1. It didn't go very well at all, ended up back in Windows.

LOL, the same here. I was in dependency hell. It started when I wanted to use a PCTel 56k modem (in 2004, after the CDs were sitting for 2 years and deciding to try Mandrake 8.1 again 2 years later!) and after compiling it and when running insmod, insmod failed with an unresolved symbol error and I was left out in the dust, because nobody even warned me of the Mandrake 8.1 kernel or any libraries included, missing functions the driver was using. Thus, was forced to go back to Windows.

It also didn't have the proper driver for a GeForce 2 MX, it seemed to expect that I have an earlier GeForce than the one I had, the very first gen!

Looked like even the GeForce 2 MX (when I had Mandrake 8.1, back in 2002) was too new! :(

Internet access was never successful until I gotten a Zoom 3048-C external serial 56k modem.

Then years later, in 2005 and 2006, I was happily trying Ubuntu. ;)

And, TBH, my 56k was faster than in Windows, especially with Epiphany. ;)

[Edgeworth]

A friend lent me a copy of RedHat and helped me install it a while ago.
I still had dial-up, and was too lazy to figure out lin/winmodems so it was mainly a plaything. But I found Feisty, and have been using Ubuntu since.

[chris200x9]

xubuntu 6.10 or 6.04 I just bought it from frozentech cuz I liked the name...I fsked up my computer but learned alot...now 100% arch...

[yabbadabbadont]

Slackware '96
