[KLUG Members] Anyone try Quantian?

[Ralph M. Deal]

I have just tried unsuccessfully to install a special version of LINUX 
for quantitative work, using my RedHat 9, Quantian.  Unfortunately, it 
was developed from a Debian system and hence the installation as an 
alternative boot system uses Debian directories and commands that don't 
exist in a RedHat system.  I seem to have gotten most of the 
installation done but can't make the lilo-grub system recognize this 
option.  The installation instructions are for a lilo boot whereas my 
RH9 usues a grub boot.

Anyone had any experience with this particular version of LINUX?  I 
found no references to it in recent KLUG archives.  Quantian includes 
lots of tools not normal in a LINUX installation, including XLISP-STAT 
which is of particular interest to me.
