Slack is pretty good... I am still partial to gentoo (what can I say? I love the portage idea). For the BSD side... openbsd is rather nice but Free is good too. I am good friends with one of the main developers of FreeBSD. VERY Smart guy. At work we use CentOS unfortunately the previous sysadmin convinced the company to run it so Ive had to deal with the BS ever since. My first order of business was create an install image with just about NOTHING on it. I think a "normal" install of Centos puts on around 1000 rpms. Mine had about 100.

Though... I have done LFS before... never again!
