I am looking for something "retro" -ish to download from Internet Archive to test burning a CD. Might as well download something interesting or that I may use. Possibly Linux distros from the 1999 - 2005 era. Got any recommendations? https://archive.org/details/cd-roms#retro #cd #cdROM #linux

Thanks. I downloaded Knoppix 3.3 That may be useful for attempting to boot old systems from that era. #knoppix #linux #retro

@matthew Knoppix was designed for exactly that use case: a no-risk Linux for people who were more used to renewing their McAfee virus scanner subscription than to understanding what kind of hardware they own.There is a Knoppix application that targets exactly that audience: Desinfec't https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Desinfec%E2%80%99t
