You do realise that ubuntu 4.10 is about a full 9 years more recent than your CD? Since this seems to have turned into a contest, I still have a May 1994 linux 2-CD set including mirror of prep.ai, sunsite, and tsx-11. Includes the latest 1.1.18 kernel sources. Most everyone installed slackware in those days.... It'd be hard to get much older than that without resorting to a stack floppies. Cheers, Carl.
