What is wrong with Slackware 3.1? I installed it fresh off of Infomagic's 6 cd developers resource.. There seemed to be only one thing wrong after installation... You have to do a MAKEDEV console to make a couple of missing console devices... And of course there are security holes in it, there are in every distribution. Thats no excuse to swithc over to another distribution... Oh well :>
