Re: trying to install slink from cdrom on ds10...

The install process copies the kernel from the floppy disk to the hard
disk during the installation. That was enough to get up and running. Then
I downloaded the kernel sources from ftp.us.kernel.org and compiled the
kernel specifically for the machine.
