It sure was. However, managers at my current company will blindly say that
MS is still the best solution and pour more dollars into it's products -
but then our IT manager and the corporation feels Compaq and HP ares the
best choices for PCs so that's what we have to buy.

You can pass parameters at boot time, and they can, if memory serves, be put
into lilo.conf.
Here is what I have in mine.

Hi all,
I got a box running Slackware 8 that I am gonna use to make a firewall

I don't use software that evinces such an attitude, at least the

Why not use RPMS or SRPMS? There is a wine release that is updated often
for Caldera at http://www.lst.de/%7Emm/wine.html.
That said, once you untar them you will find a directory called
winesomething which is the top directory of the package. Look at the
readme and INSTALL files in this an

Hi,
I wish to modify some parameters like shmmax directly
in /usr/src/linux/include without remaking entirely
the original kernel.
Is there a way to recover the first .config file
(installation's one which doesn't exist in
/usr/src/linux) and how could i do that ?
Thanks.

You do realize that version of wine is from Dec 2000, right? That's
ancient old. Go to http://www.winehq.net and get something that's at
least from year 2002.
