+ Open Development (at least DrakX)
+ UDMA66 (HPT366)
+ gamerz
+ number of packages
+ better packages(?)
+ no automatic handling of ide burners
+ urpmi/rpmdrake
+ XFdrake
+ no newbie install
+ reiserfs
+ fat resizing
+ 3D handling (eg: Voodoo3)
+ diskdrake (vs diskdruid)
+ usb storage (?)
+ KDE2
+ faces in kdm/gdm
+ menu
+ alternatives
+ /etc/emacs/site-start.d
+ default config
+ i18n (bootloader keyboard)
+ More user-friendliness in general:
+ you can choose between multiple net devices when more than one are
detected
+ you are presented with the media descriptions (disks, cdrom's)
when you must choose between multiple media, and not only "sda",
"hdc", ..
+ when installing from a disk partition, you are presented with an
extract of the directory contents when you fail to give the
correct location, which is very helpful to correct the input
instead of simply rebooting to remember where on earth you
mirrored the distribution on your disks
+ Automatic mode (Redhat's equivalent is called "kickstart") is not
performed according to a file on the floppy but from kernel parameters,
which have many pros, among them: (1) we don't need the vfat filesystem
for that purpose, and (2) with advanced bootloaders such as grub and
lilo you can edit parameters on the fly at boot time.
- no LABEL= in fstab (for auto renumbering of devices)
- kerberos
- LDAP
