You can find historic versions of the Linux_ kernel at
http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/Historic/

The archive may be incomplete -- I see an 0.99.x and 0.96[abc].  No
0.97.  The 0.96 tarball contains no readily apparent COPYING file or
licensing notice, other than Linus's copyright.  It's possible (though I
don't know for certain) that the code has be retroactively included in
the GPL relicensing. 

Why specifically 0.97?
