Thanks - yea, its slow to boot but is *nix once you get in there... I have it working with my network card, which is cool, but most modern day software won't compile with the versions of makesuite that we have here.

However, I'm learning about slackbuilds - a way to add Slack11 i486 packages - m0re to come... :P This is the 4th *nix I've gotten on the 486 platform;

Minix 2
Minix 3
Slackware 1
SmallLinux
Slackware 11

.... Just because.
