Hi, > Short Version - I need a working version of the COREL Linux boot image. > Long Version As those of you who had the misfortune of trying to install Corel Linux from the PC-WORLD Jan 2000 CD would have realised - 1. The *damned* CD-ROM is not bootable 2. The /tools directory is corrupt - so rawrite*.exe wont run. 3. The directory containing the boot image is corrupt. Luckily for penny pinchers like me, my guess is the rest of the directories are NOT corrupt. (How do I know?, I opened up some of the files in a plain simple text editor. The README's / help files in the above two are binary junk, while those in the rest are ascii text). So, to save my handsome investment of Rs 85, I theoretically need - 1. The /tools directory - I've downloaded the relevant files from ftp.debian.org, and I'm sort of hoping that it will work - afterall, these are MS-DOS programs right? [filelist - fips20.zip, gzip124.exe, lodlin16.zip, rawrite1.zip, rawrite2.zip, unz512x3.exe] 2. The Boot Image Now, I've done everything that I could: checked up the COREL site, checked up the PC-WORLD global site (I could not locate the Indian site), looked up various misc. linux sites hoping that I could get the boot image (1440 verson) from somewhere. I could not. All I can get is a 300 MB+ ISO CD image - I cant afford such a large download, and worse - I dont have a CD burner either. So, could any of you help me getting to this file? If any of you happen to have the *1440.img, could you upload it up, either at the www.ilug-bom.org site or some other public ftp server? ____________________________________________________________________ Get free email and a permanent address at http://www.netaddress.com/?N=1 To subscribe / unsubscribe goto the site www.ilug-bom.org ., click on the mailing list button and fill the appropriate information and submit.
