That doesn't mean it's still not the best solution to a problem!

Noah, I'm running RH9 on a brand-spanking-new P4 and ASUS mobo.  I'm a
bit confused as to why you say you can't run RH9 on your system.
Where is the probe failing?

Right now, the distro of choice for Planet CCRMA seems to be FC1.  I am
still running RH9 though, since there's little incentive to upgrade.
RedHat's support is pretty much irrelevant to me, since Planet CCRMA
keeps all of the tools I care about up to date.  Is there a compelling
reason for you to use a RH supported distro?
