Hi, I'm running potato on a G3 iMac. It's going well, thanks to your help :) But... (1) I've downloaded Navigator 4.08 for linux 2.0; after installing, and trying to execute netscape, the shell says it's not an executable binary (it's a binary allright). Is it because I should get linux 2.0 glibc? what is glibc anyway? gnu library? (note, during mount of /dev/hda, I did keep linux 2.0 compatibility when asked) (2) Somehow I was able to download Navigator once using lynx. But it seems it's not doing well with large files. I failed to download Communicator or Navigator for linux 2.0 glibc. Maybe they're too big? lynx just freezes after download. Can lynx's memory be increased? (3) I must say I'm impressed with the download speeds I'm getting with lynx, consistently above 5 K/sec on a 56K modem. Switching to MAC OS, the speed, at about the same time today, was more like 1 K/sec. Same file. Is there a good reason for this?
(4) some random piece of info that could be useful to others: to get X running, the mouse type is IMSP/2 for /dev/usbmouse (5) in Ethan's notes, the mkofboot command should read (the /target/ is missing, even though it's pretty obvious, it can be confusing for a newbie like me) mkofboot --boot /dev/hda2 -m /target/etc/ofboot.b --root ...... (6) how does one do an anonymous ftp? what's the username and password? thanks again, Philip
