[nflug] Free Linux CDs

Thanks for the link.

I am sincerely hoping that the suse dvd I requested
works a bit better than the FIVE cds I have downloaded and burned (for 
both 10 AND 10.1, so TEN cds), but that never seem to install properly 
without dropping packages all over the place, leaving me with worthless 
cdrs all over the place and suse systems that ALMOST work, but not quite.

Hopefully this sort of promotion will kick nix into high gear and help 
people out of the M$ trap, especially after seeing that "M$ does it 
again" post from yesterday, but I still know people who cling 
desperately to their M$ 98 systems, even after I clearly and patiently 
point out the grave error they are making. FUD, like paranoia, runs 
deep, I guess.

S.

p.s. Not so sure about fedora, myself, since it hasn't wanted to work on 
any of the slightly older machines I have here starting with fc1 (also 
ANOTHER 5 cd set) I started out on nix with RH 7.2, so I'm more or less 
familiar with the scene, or was, anyway, while it was still redhat, but 
I much prefer BLAG - http://www.blagblagblag.org/ - who just recently 
released their 50K version (based on fedora 5,but all on ONE cd)

Viva la Revolucion!
