Top Forums UNIX for Beginners Questions & Answers Which UNIX OS is going to give me the most versatility? I Want Total Control Post 302974359 by TheOuterLinux on Sunday 29th of May 2016 03:25:42 AM

Creating your own distro with OpenSUSE would give you the most control because finding specific packages (RPM) is much easier. However, Xubuntu would give you less headaches and because it's Ubuntu based, you'd have better supported packages to work with and something that doesn't ask too much from your computer. Most copy and paste to terminal guides are based on Ubuntu these days.
