I've finally got a distro of linux!. I've got zipspeak which is a slightly modified version of slackware 7.1. My question is, 1 can I install it with out using loadlin and 2, can I install it via a network and if so, where can I find the network.dsk file that setup refers to?? Thanks for all your help so far guys. Shaun -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
