I tested out the 9.1 desktop version in VMware.
First I tried to install with UEFI firmware, but the installer complained about missing files in the beginning, used a lot of CPU and ultimately crashed.
With firmware set to BIOS installation was successful.
After running a system update it uses about 1,5 GB of RAM and 8 GB of disk space.
In the end this is like Fedora but with outdated software, so I don't know what benefits Eurolinux offers above that distribution.

This distro is new to me, but I was pleasantly surprised with it. (9.1 Desktop)
No real issues, installer has great choices for security option among others, absolutely no bloat. Mouse pointer was invisible during installation, but works as intended on the actual installation. Accessibility functions worked for a minute, (onscreen keyboard especially) but for some reason stopped working as intended. Could be my AMD GPU issues.. Doesnt bother too much, so havent sorted it out yet.
Almost everything works out of the box, nice clean RHEL/Gnome distro for daily use.
Coming from a long line of casual use Win/Mac userbase, I have settled to comfy, practical and stable distros to use. Still testing it out, but so far so good.
Would recommend this to friends and family.

Tried to install "minimal" this morning but it booted into terminal. I expected it to send me into a desktop, but the installer never asked me which one. Also I selected extra packages besides the "base" one to install, while leaving the modem on but it mustn't have had an effect. Because I also have 32-bit Slackware installed on my computer, the boot options menu for this distro came up with multiple copies of booting with Slackware. In addition, the startup messages displayed by this distro were downright confusing, some parts "systemd" and others all in plain grey on black. It was a mother installing this, tolerated it with Fedora only out of the RPM-based distros, gave up because I didn't know how to proceed from cold terminal.
LOL no way was I going to download an ISO which was 12GB! :O
I'm not a beginner, nor am intermediate neither but the installer (Python-filled Anaconda which is slow and presents information in confusing fashion) for this distro should have at least asked me which desktop environment I wanted. If it was going to install only GNOME it should have clearly stated it before installing it, then I would have gladly aborted the attempt to install it.
