Foresight Linux

I've just made a somewhat brief test of Foresight Linux. I find it to be an interesting contradiction. It should be good, it is in fact mostly good, but it is weak in just enough areas to spoil it for me.

The basic idea of Foresight Linux is very good. It is Debian Linux, with the Gnome desktop, and its major "claim to fame" seems to be the "Conary" software management system, which looks like an improved RPM system. That in itself sounded good enough, and intriguing enough, that I was anxious to try it.

The distribution seemed a bit odd to me - for the standard "Foresight GNOME" edition, you have a choice between a DVD image or two CD images, but if you choose the CDs, then both disks are needed for the install.
