Please excuse this if it's in a FAQ somewhere - I've looked but couldn't
find anything.
I got a copy of Linux using the SLS package about 3 weeks ago - so I'm new
to all this (!). It is version 0.99 pl9 and XFree86 1.2.
I have a Compaq pc and so can't run X-stuff until I upgrade to 1.3.
Now that 1.3 is out I've got copies of it and all (I think/hope) of the
files to do an upgrade to 0.99 pl10.
That's where I need someone's help. I've NEVER done an upgrade as the SLS
stuff just loaded itself onto the disks without any problems.
So will somebody out there send a step-by-step guide to a newbie so I can
upgrade and then run X-windows etc.??
TIA
Paul
