Each disk only took me ten minutes ;-).... Of
course I did have to carry a laptop physically across hill & dale to
plug it
into the fast ethernet......

Thanks, I've found the howto that advises me to
d/l
the respin iso's,. should have the first one in around 2.5 hrs :) I love
DSL!

Respin disks, I believe, are ones with a few
fixes on i.e. more up-to-date than the original images. Certainly when I
downloaded RH7 I was advised to get the respin images. They certainly
worked
fine in the end.

Linux
Paul, take a look at Red Hat 7.1, Mandrake 7.2, SUSE 7.1
[is that released
yet?], Turbo Linux [forget the version number] or one
of many others. My
personal preference is for Mandrake 7.2, but they
are all excellent.
I have the GPLed versions of SUSE 7.0 and
Mandrake 7.2 readily available -
amongst many, many others - and would
be happy to send you a copy on a nice
shiny Samsung CDR. If none of the
above suit [I don't have Red Hat] drop me
a
line and I'll search my
catalogue for all available distros.
One off offer - no
charge!
