Well, the machine this is going on doesn't have a CD-ROM (and won't, unless
one will work with the CD oriented vertically... It's my "lunchbox", an old
luggable with 640x480x16 plasma display into which I've put a 486-66 MB and
a Diamond Stealth 64 video card. It's running DR-DOS 7.03 right now. I
was anticipating putting the files on my desktop machine and Interlinking
them over to the lunchbox.)

Thank you for your kind offer (and I'll keep it in mind!) but from the
little I've been able to absorb, an earler release is recommended (are the
version numbers consistent across distributions? Redhat 5.2 is what was
being recommended earlier) I'll check the mirror site you recommended
first before getting in touch with you.

Best regards,

Randy
