Hi Tony,

Let say you set up the first 5 disks of the Slackware release..A1, A2, A3, A4
|
|
and A5. You probably would need say 10 meg for that... What could you do at
|
|
that point? Well, you could look at directories with the ls command - the
|
|
linux equivalent to DIR in DOS.
|
|
|
|
If you installed the A series, *and* the AP series disks, you'd be be able to
|
|
actually learn the *nix operating system and that would take about 30meg.

There's a file on my BBS you probably ought to read.. it's a an info file
|
|
outlining just this kind of thing. Magic name LNXINFO (LNX.INF)

|
|
Take care,
|
