Thanks a lot for providing these ISOs Helge!! Maybe it happened by coincidence, but a week ago I revived a long broken XP1000 with a new/old CPU board. So this machine is ready to do some experiments. There is just a 3DLabs Oxygen VX1 adapter in it so far, everything else standard. Installation w

Hello, I'm still running Sarge on a AS300 4/266 with a self-built 2.4.32 kernel from pristine sources in a software RAID1 configuration. I thought it's about time to use a 2.6.x kernel and upgrade to Etch. My first attempts to do this date back to when 2.6.21 was Latest, so I'm still trying with t
