Well, if you don't like Debian, try Slackware or if you would like to try BSD, certainly FreeBSD is worth the try. If you find FreeBSD a bit more user-friendly, then OpenBSD is what you are looking for -- I like it, it's just few (5-11) tarballs for installation and installation itself is just one shell script.
