i think it'd be better off contacting the nearest user group chapter for help..
CD grabs are a routine part of the user group meetings and the ppl would be pleased to
donate CDs...
we have our own user group down here @ chennai(India) and we are quite lucky to be a
part of the 7.2 revolution

!I seem to remember that RH have stopped releasing the PowerTools etc CD since 7.2. I
sympathise with your situation over not being able to download the iso images because
of using a dialup connection. I have a dialup connection which throws me out after
two hours but the telephone line time is free, - so I successfully downloaded RH7.2 CD
One and Two (with the RPMs). Overall it took 60 hours download time! - They will
enable you to boot straight into an installation if the BIOS is set to look for your
CDROM drive after the A drive. Failing that you can use MS DOS utilities in a sub
directory to create Floppy boot images and drivers for the CD ROM to start the install
from A drive.
!If you wish to send me your full postal address I will send you copies of the ISO
image CDs I have made. In your email give me an idea of what installation knowledge
you need/have and a list of your hardware - the full instructions are available on the
RH support website. If you want to refund me the postage then fine. Best Wishes, Nick
:)

! hello , i am not very clear about the licensing associated with linux and i want to
get my hands on 7.2 cds ( including the power tools, documentation and the source code
cds )
! i currently use 7.1 i got that in a linux book i had purchased, but that did not
give me the power tools cd, or the documentation cd.
! Is red hat linux completly free ? I ask that because i heard you all talk about
downloading it from the ftp site.
! I use a dialup connection so downloading it is out of the question
! So how do i get the linux 7.2 cds ( all of them ) in india (delhi) ? , for the
least possible cost
!
