Re: [newbie] win vs. linux downloads

Yes, I do it all the time.   Just make a directory .. say, Linux   Download programs to your directory/folder   (I have done the above.)   (What is below I have not done, but I was told it will work if one has vfat support compiled into the kernel.)   If you have vfat support in Linux kernel, mount the windows partition where they are located and copy them to your Linux partition.   Oh and my windows 98 is using long file names.   Best!   Mark           ----- Original Message ----- From: Jack E Dorris To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: December 1, 1999 2:39 PM Subject: [newbie] win vs. linux downloads is it possible to download applications for linux using windows98?  I need to download extra support software, but I haven't been able to make linux dial out yet.   thanx jack
