I am installing Slackware

<< < (3/3)

hm_murdock:
Slack is the first version of Linux I ever tried... and I hated it. That was '95 or '96. I didn't give it another shot until Red Hat 5 hit the scene. Then I gave it a fair shake. Liked it better, but the showstopper was printer support. It's better now though. If I had to use a PC again, it'd be Linux

good luck with Slack, Bazoukas!

Master of Reality:
an associate of mine has some type of linux from 1991 (or 1992) and its on a whole bunch of floppy disks. Would this be before there was any actual distros or would it be redhat or slackware??

I am gonna have to travel on a far adventure to go get the disks and try to install it on something, in accordance with the prophecy.

voidmain:
It would probably be 1992 or later if there were a lot of floppies. The few distros that were available at that time were all floppy based. It was probably SLS or Slackware.
