debs,
for all it's worth, i've tried the floppies, countless downloads, and,

box that
boots linux, with no xwindows and no internet, yet.
i'll be glad when i get there.

I've seen odd booting behavior from LILO before when BIOS settings were
set to things that Linux couldn't understand/support. Other things I've

I have been using xfmail for a while, but find it crashing often on me, ie,
