learning linux

sueway — Fri, 30 Jan 2009 00:39:38 +0800

if we want to master linux server, which company's linux server product is recommended? e.g., redhat and novell's suse. obviously they are called "linux", so if we master redhat, does it also mean that we are basically capable of using suse? what is true in term of similarity, and what is not

im talking about server product, not, for example, fedora..
and not particularly redhat and suse only

+EDIT
including unix
there are somany variance

Free Unix-like operating systems
In 1983, Richard Stallman announced the GNU project, an ambitious effort to create a free software Unix-like system; "free" in that everyone who received a copy would be free to use, study, modify, and redistribute it. The GNU project's own kernel development project, GNU Hurd, had not produced a working kernel, but in 1992 Linus Torvalds released the Linux kernel as free software under the GNU General Public License. In addition to their use in the Linux operating system, many GNU packages — such as the GNU Compiler Collection (and the rest of the GNU toolchain), the GNU C library and the GNU core utilities — have gone on to play central roles in other free Unix systems as well.

Linux distributions, comprising Linux and large collections of compatible software have become popular both with individual users and in business. Popular distributions include Red Hat Enterprise Linux, Fedora, SUSE Linux Enterprise, openSUSE, Debian GNU/Linux, Ubuntu, Mandriva Linux, Slackware Linux and Gentoo.

A free derivative of BSD Unix, 386BSD, was also released in 1992 and led to the NetBSD and FreeBSD projects. With the 1994 settlement of a lawsuit that UNIX Systems Laboratories brought against the University of California and Berkeley Software Design Inc. (USL v. BSDi), it was clarified that Berkeley had the right to distribute BSD Unix — for free, if it so desired. Since then, BSD Unix has been developed in several different directions, including OpenBSD and DragonFly BSD.

Linux and BSD are now rapidly occupying much of the market traditionally occupied by proprietary Unix operating systems, as well as expanding into new markets such as the consumer desktop and mobile and embedded devices. Due to the modularity of the Unix design, sharing bits and pieces is relatively common; consequently, most or all Unix and Unix-like systems include at least some BSD code, and modern systems also usually include some GNU utilities in their distribution.

is the harddisk activity in vista normal?

sueway — Mon, 03 Nov 2008 13:15:24 +0800

Disk: Highest Active Time in vista's resource monitor is high (task manager > performance > resource monitor)
according to microsfot help file...

QUOTE

The Disk label displays the total current I/O in green, and the highest active time percentage in blue.

still dont understand what does the blue mean practically

here is my harddisk's activity based on LED indicator on my notebook
- about 30 seconds after logon, no activity (all programs are finish loaded i think, fast huh? )
- 1 minute something to about 4 minutes, the harddisk starts its strange activity, and Disk: Highest Active Time in vista's resource monitor is flying high at 97-100%, it continues for about few minutes. This should be a background activity since i can still open a 20mb pdf file with acceptable speed during this period.

i wonder is it consider normal compare to yours? I hope this every time startup activity would not shortening my harddisk life span

attached herewith are some resource monitor screenshots
+ I have checked, all useless startup programs have been disabled. No viruses, newly installed vista
