As mentioned
elsewhere, my primary desktop sports multiple OSses (Gentoo, Slackware, Debian, RedHat and SimplyMEPIS Linux), the latter of which I use most in my day-to-day routine.
Of the other machines in the house:
- A bunch have RH7.3 through recent Fedora offerings on them
- A couple of Lindows/Linspire installations
- One has DR DOS, Novell DOS, Caldera DOS and Linspire 4.5 on it
- Some servers with pure-play Debian, LFS and Gentoo
- Two more with Simply MEPIS 7 for my daughter and son
- Two home schooling machines with XP Pro, SP2 on them
- One home schooling music computer with XP Home, SP2 on it
- My wife's machine with XP Home, SP2
- The s_c_r_a_p hard drive with XP Home, SP2 (it was w98se, in 2004); that I manually swap-into my desktop when I play TT (bit of a pain because it's IDE when the machine is mainly SATA with a single IDE connector with an IDE Linux Data drive and a DVD burner on it)
There are several notebooks running in and out of the house:
- One of which is waiting for me to ditch the W2K installation that was on it when it was given to me--it'll put Gentoo on it
- Another has a WinME installation on it, which we never bother using--I should probably Gentoo that one too
- I thought we had one around here that had w98se on it, but I can't be sure anymore (if we do, I'll eradicate it)
- 3 more have SimplyMEPIS 6 or 6.5 on them
- Mine has a triple boot of XP "something or other" (only used to show people how horribly slow it runs as compared to Linux), a Gentoo installation, and a SimplyMEPIS 7 installation, to pair-up with with my primary desktop installation
- 1 college daughter needs me to repair her dual-boot XP/SimplyMEPIS 7 installation after she "didn't do anything" to it
- Post Doc daughter uses XP exclusively on her notebook, even though she knows better
Maybe that covers the majority of what we have...and maybe not.
