Cool! Sounds like you are having fun! Thanks for the kudos. I've been making too many copies of tomsrtbt disk myself. :) So, I'll stop making copies, I think we have enough.
But, there are _many_ different floppy disk based Linux distributions and projects that we could make copies and share. For instance, http://www.linuxrouter.org. I started looking at the LRP docs last night but can't figure out how to actually make the floppies. Anybody got any ideas? On another note, I've started burning copies of Mandrake Linux 8.1. I will make about a dozen. I will also burn 6 copies of Mandrake Linux 7.1 (for 486s). I think I remember that this will be enough. Please bring me blanks to trade. I don't need CD boxes, as I keep them all in a big CD case. The BRLUG CD Library could really use a bunch of CD paper sleeves, if anybody wants to donate some. I am not going to store our CDs in jewel boxes, as that takes up way too much room.
