I need some help getting started. I am trying to get started with installing linux with speakup. I have a DOS partition dedicated just for linux. I have a R/W CD-ROM and a zip disk which I was hoping to use for installation. I have looked over the various packages of linux, and I am wondering if there is a way to just download any & all of one brand of linux, such as debian, or one of the other two mentioned. I have found dozens & dozens of files to download, and I would just like to get all of them, for whichever package I go with as one file. Another thing I am hoping someone can help with, is the choice of one of the three brands of linux. I would prefer to install from a zip disk or from a CD. I am not too enthused about installing from a bunch of floppies, which is what debian seems to offer. Thanks for any assistance. "Live long and prosper", O.
