Folks,

I asked about doing that when looking at the product.

They were not willing to support the kernel issues if the Kernel were
recompiled, or file system changed. That
dang well makes it impossible to use XFS and have meaningful contract
support from RH.

My response is to puchase additional liceneses of RHL at the $80 per
year for RPM support.  Hope they understand that!

RHAT Premium is $2500... so there is a bit of savings there.

In that case, is it better to use a mandrake based dist?

Vendor pressure on customer somehow sounds like a real bad thing in a
partner. Sounds like another Mighty OS vendor I have run across in
travels.
