I ditched Debian and went with Red Hat. I felt bad watching it do all the
work for me though, I had intended on learning somehing. I no have Mandrake
and RedHat currently, Only two boxes left, one will be a fight with the wife,
and the other is an old 386.....good luck to me. All I want it for is to run
one DOS program....(to run a robot I have) nothing more. so, a kernel and
DOSEMU should do it right? I'll proll wait till friday before I tackle that
one...
