Well, I thought I would "expand my horizons" and learn unix.
I am a Amiga and Dos wiz and would like to learn more about
Unix (well Linux in this case)
I got the FAQ's the install docs and the .98 boot and root.
and it almost works 8`( on my Zenith 386-20.
When the Boot disk loads up it gives me the EGAc in the corner
and lists various screen modes but the text goes off the bottom
of the screen (at least 5 lines I would guess) I can't seem to
change the screen to be fewer rows. hitting any key just loads
the root image and it works fine too, just runs off the bottom of
the screen is all. Is there a way to change the number of rows
that linux displays? (I haven't installed it yet, just booting
off the floppies)
Also where is .99? I ftped .98 from Wuarchive (mirror site)
Thanks, from a would be linux-er
