Fair warning to anyone attempting to download this; IE wants to treat the "memdisk" file as text instead of executable so I suggest grabbing it with cygwin.

I did not test the winimage compressed images with any other extension so ymmv. -Jeff ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: IBM Linux Tutorials Free Linux tutorial presented by Daniel Robbins, President and CEO of GenToo technologies.
