What ever happened to 7.1?? One day i was browsing through 7.1 RPMS on a mirror site
and the next
day they were all gone and i couldn't find any mention of 7.1 ANYWHERE. It's like it
never
existed. (I know it did exist and no i'm not crazy, because i've got a copy of it
burned to disk.)
Did that not have i386 packages etc? I thought it did, but i don't remember.... Still,
why did 7.1
disappear like that?
