Run Linux LiveCD, enjoy what I'm using. 2. Attempt to install Linux. For whatever reason, it doesn't see my RAID and forces me to use my two SSDs as separate drives rather than just one. 3. Install Linux anyway and am pleased to discover that all of the hardware works. Don't mind that startup goes from taking 8 seconds to about 60. 4. Run Steam, it asks to update. 5. Update the whole computer. 6. Steam suddenly doesn't load at all. 7. Try to restore the Macrium Reflect image of my previous Windows 10 install: it fails (apparently because the RAID I re-created is different even though the settings are identical. However, it claims that the image is corrupted). 8. Try to restore my computer's image of Windows 8.1 OS install, created when I purchased the machine. It fails as well. 9. Out of desperate, try to restore an image of the whole computer and risk losing all of my data. Luckily, it works without deleting the data I was careful to put on a separate drive. 10. Partitions are suddenly out of whack even though the RAID was for two M.2 SSD drives totaling 240GB. Everything works but EaseUS is used to correct the partitions and bring everything back to normal. Windows 10? No wonder you had problems. With Windows 8.1 and 10, my computer boots to the desktop in about 8 seconds and is completely ready for action after about 20. In Linux, one whole minute and the icons in KDE still hadn't appeared. Not only that but if my display turned off in Linux (kernel 4.4 btw), it froze the computer. That is definitely not what I would consider to be quality. Try installing Linux with Windows 10 nowhere near the machine. Linux is like a Chrysler car; if it is anywhere near something better, it breaks down and leaves you stranded on the highway. And when you do, install Linux Mint Mate and then get back to us with your stereotypes, biases and ignorance. The typical answer of a Linux loser: you chose the wrong one of our hundreds of distributions. #371 is the right one. BTW, Windows 10 is more of a store than an operating system. Be prepared to pay rent soon. We'll see. If that happens, I'd still rather pay whatever Microsoft asks. Another Windows loser that's lost his ability to think logically. I'm not sure about that: User tries Linux then user discovers that it's garbage so he returns to Windows. Nope, the logic is perfect. I don't have a problem with either one of them. What am I doing wrong? You're not _doing_ anything wrong but you _are_ delusional. Really? What's the delusion, hot shot? For me both Windows and Linux work just fine and when Windows 7 is no longer supported, I will bid Windows adieu. I promise you that every inhabitant of our world will shed a single tear at the loss. -- Slimer OpenMedia & EFF Member / Conservative Party of Canada, IFAW, PETA & Mozilla Supporter After several serious attempts at using Linux, I can honestly say that the word is synonymous with garbage. |

Most god based religions are violent. Christianity's history is very similar to the Taliban/ISIS as is most of the current GOP congress persons. KKK, John Birch, etc. Killer cops kill more civilians than all the terrorists combined that have killed folks in the USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and Europe. So stick that in your ****ing bigoted and UNEDUCATED pipe. -- John Q. Public |

To say the least, mediocre software doesn't deserve to be run in general. [snip] And as for running a RAID, did you do any reading on the topic first ? If I had a RAID, I wouldn't just "whap in a copy of Linux" and expect a miracle. Usually some pre-install reading is in order, even with other OSes, to achieve the best outcome. For example, some RAID packages support "migration", you can install the OS on a single disk, then "migrate" to a RAID 0/1/5 config, and the RAID rebuilds while you work. But for that to happen, first you'd have to realize the brand of RAID supports migration, and you learn that by reading. I can think of at least two RAID implementations, where extra effort was put into software RAID migration for the array. Good points but I don't respect an operating system which, in 2016, still doesn't recognize what the Hell a RAID is. It's a very old technology so it's surprising that some distributions would ignore it entirely. I don't know about your system, but my motherboard has hardware RAID built-in -- not that I use it, and the last two installs of Linux I did (in virtual machines no less), during the partitioning phase, had options for RAID. Maybe you missed it. Even installs not in VM recognized that RAID was available and offered the option. Maybe, you really don't have RAID or it's a software one. The RAID was set up in the BIOS. It is clearly not a software one. Perhaps other distributions had options for RAID, however Sabayon did not. Linux, in general, doesn't depend on the BIOS like Windows does for hardware info. It determines it itself. You have to tell the installer what you want it to do. The RAID option was offered with these Linux distros recently: Fedora, Debian, Mint; and in the past, CentOS and Scientific Linux. As far as I can remember. Perhaps, downloading and checking the Installation docs of the distro you're trying . . . . Stef |
