“After fielding a few questions from our visitors about Storm
Linux we decided to take a closer look. This is not so much a
review of the distribution as it is a review of our experience. We
encountered a few bumps along the way and in the end decided to
scrap the install. But, we still think Storm Linux is worth
checking out.”
“Stormix has certainly succeeded (assuming your SCSI card
doesn’t stop the install before it starts :> ) in making their
distro easy to install. …if you’re a newbie and want to install
Stormix, do yourself a favor by learning about partitioning your
drive for Linux before you begin. … Stormix uses a graphical
interface for setting up and configuring LILO. Again, nothing earth
shattering here but it does make the process easier for
Newbies.”
“So the bottom line here is that Storm Linux does seem to be a
distro worth a newbie’s attention but is not ready for a full
review (with our hardware at least). Experienced Linux users will
probably be more satisfied with Debian (from which Storm Linux is
derived). If Stormix can resolve these problem areas we will
probably recommend it more confidently to our visitors.”
