For the past three weeks I've been trying o figure out the same thing.... This is a question that _should_be answered in the FAQ! Win95 may be frowned upon by the majority of UN*X based users and system operators, but at least I can figure out what I need to install the damn thing... Please someone....answer this burning question.... a) What files are needed for a _bare_ minimal installation ? b) What are the various distributions ? c) What files will we need to download for these distributions ? d) in the 2.1.5 Release why is there no root.flp image as with other releases ??? PLEASE!!!! Help all us lost souls who want an answer to our OS DILEMNA! David H. dhenshaw@silas.cc.monash.edu.au
