GNU/Linux is all about choice. Other distributions of GNU/Linux have
their devotees, and each in its own way contributes significantly to
the overall development of GNU/Linux. Other distibutions include
Red Hat,
Mandrake,
SuSe, and
Slackware. There are many
distributions indexed at https://www.linux.org/dist/index.html.
An early distribution, still being maintained is Slackware
available from https://www.slackware.com/. Clearly,
Red Hat, available from https://www.redhat.com/, is
an excellent distribution responsible for gaining a lot of exposure
for GNU/Linux.
While we use Debian GNU/Linux in this book as the underlying
distribution what we say here applies to most distributions most of
the time.
