Hi
I'm dual booting FC4 and CentOS on one machine
and using FC3 on a separate m/c as my "main" machine
CentOS4.1 (RHEL4) is more stable because its been out far longer than
FC4 !!!!
FC3 had trouble (for me) with udev, hal, gam-server, kernel when it
first came out but is solid now!!
For CentOS
I have added dag.repo (RHEL4) to get hold of video type things
mplayer, xine
rpmbuild totem-xine-src.rpm from dag also
cat dag.repo
[dag] name=Dag RPM Repository for Red Hat Enterprise Linux
baseurl=http://apt.sw.be/redhat/el$releasever/en/$basearch/dag
gpgcheck=1
enabled=1
gpgkey=http://dag.wieers.com/packages/RPM-GPG-KEY.dag.txt
