Hi Satoshi, My first experience with UNIX was with Yggdrasil Linux, which sported a bootable CDROM with live filesystem. At the time ('94?) it really sucked. More info at http://www.yggdrasil.com/, but be aware that this distribution of Linux was only available as a CDROM that is distributed on a commercial basis. This may have changed in the last 4 years. Ciao, Sheldon. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
