[plug] Install

[Rick (VK6EP)]

I'v just bought a copy of 'the complete idiot's guid to linux'. ($39.95
from Dymocks) With it comes a copy of Caldera 1.3. Caldera 1.3 can be
installed, without X, on a 100mb HDD. It's called a mionimum system and in
fact only needs about 45mb. 

This would be a great way to learn the in's and out's of linux, on a very
basic machine. 

If this excites you, I guess I can get a friend of mine to burn a cd for you.

Just my two cent's worth.
