Now that's what I like to hear! I actually went ahead and grabbed apt, libc6, and libstdc++ from slink and thus 'cheated' to get the thing going. It seems to be working so far (slooooooowwww over ftp). I recently upgraded the disk in my laptop so this disk is now my test disk. It turns out to be a lot easier to swap the disk out of my laptop than my desktop in terms of sheer numbers of screws and hassles. Anyway, I'll try the apt for hamm after this one's done. I backed up my whole disk so I could do installs. I'd also like to do a test from diskettes but it appears there are none at this point. Well, thanks for the help. Hopefully I can provide some useful feedback.
