Well I have 64 MB RAM, Pentium 233, Toshiba 320 CDT laptop and Netscape is
also slow in starting.  But once up it only hangs once in a while.

I have RedHat 5.2 with AfterStep, 4 GB hard disk devoted entirely to
Linux.  My only problem now is the fonts in the Communicator because some
of them appear as block letters and kinda hard to read.

Anyone have problems with their Communicator fonts?

LILO is installed in the Master Boot Record of your disk, so you have to
replace it with another OS loader if you want your disk to be able to boot.
 If you want to use Win95 or 98, just install it again over your old
installation, and it will replace LILO.

I believe the additional line you need in the Solaris section is
boot=/boot/chain.b (or something similar, perhaps just boot=chain.b, it's in
the HOWTO).

Try to use "linuxconf" command and you can setup the lilo booting

It's become routine, for instance, for states to build grandiose,
staggeringly expensive freeway and road systems.  They then find that
they can raise only a small fraction of their real cost from license
plate sales, meaning that they need to provide a subsidy from general
tax revenue that amounts to several times what the drivers are actually
paying.  Further, it heavily subsidizes lower-efficiency trucking
industries to the detriment of the rail network.

And even if you disagree with the cost estimates in that particular
example, it should be obvious to everyone that "special interest groups"
like the trucking industry and the auto industry squeal like stuck pigs
whenever anybody suggests they are no different than subsidized mass
transit or rail systems.  They try to make a moral issue out of a "free
market" that they've managed to acquire ownership of.

Yea, but we are HUMANS, not ants. We have feelings, and <gasp,

most of us) have a drive to succeed. Not to mention humans are lazy and
