Linux distros are advancing everywhere. Not only servers but also on the desktop pc and notebooks. There are wild discussions, if Linux-Distributions are ready for serious business work or personal use. This critical review will deal with two long awaited Linux-distributions, Fedora Core 3 and Ubuntus Warty Warhog. Why these two? Because both feature Gnome 2.8 and it would not be a comparision on equal terms to compare Gnome to e.g KDE. Also, both use kernel 2.6.8+ and have their very own theme for the default desktop. Bluecurve for Fedora and Human for Ubuntu.

The Ubuntu installer (d-i) does provide lvm support at install time.
> Does Ubuntu mount nfs partition ?
Certainly, but not by default of course!
> Does Ubuntu probe new hardware ?
Yes, via hotplug. That actually takes longest during bootup.

Fedora doesn't run Apache by default, does it???
