I'm with you on the fond memories, my very first Linux installation was actually Slackware (version 3.<something> IIRC) but it was replaced by RH-5.2 which had just been released. I learned a lot more using RH at that time because info for it was easier for me to come by, being a total newbie to not only Linux but computers as a whole. Yes, fond memories indeed. In fact just the other day I was going through some boxes I have in storage and I ran across the RH 5.2 retail box (as well as Caldera 2.2, 2.3 and 2.4). I paused for a bit and thought about installing it 'just for old time's sake', it was right about then that "life" interrupted my thoughts and I packed it all away again. Hmmm... I've still got my old P150 and it still works... now where did I put that compressed air... -- Myles Green Geek by nature. Linux by choice. "Don't worry about the world coming to an end today.
