since others seem not to like it i suppose i should point out that it
was
the best cd i ever got for debian 2.1. i got a few others from other
sources and none worked as reliabliy as the one from oreilly. worked
perfectly every time.. yes it did have a non standard kernel but
a kernel on any system i use lasts just long enough to install
the system and compile another one. the closest kernel i've found
in a distro that was to my liking is the security enhanced mandrake
kernel but even then..too many modules i like as much static
in the kernel as i can get.
