I'm going to toss out FreeBSD. I was a hard core Debian-ite for a long
time. But recently I made the switch. I'm a huge fan of the
packages/ports system. Everything "just works".
I was getting kind of fed up with a lot of the politics in the kernel
list as well as the debian world. Not that the bsd's are by any means
immune to that sort of thing, I was just more drawn more to the
development model and the licensing philosophy a bit more.
My freebsd boxen have been rock solid. I have no problems doing a
kernel update on a headless box with no console (non critical system,
but it works every time).
I can't say enough about the ports tree. 'make install clean' is all
you ever need and ALL dependancies are automagically taken care of. It
just works.
