Sounds cool - would you like me to bring a custom built distro which is
exposed to work on 386's+? Currently it's just text based, but it may be
able to install some redhat/fedora rpm's. Or source packages.


I've been building it and it has a semi-working installer.

Name:			Jedo Linux
Kernel:			2.6.0
Package manager:	RPM (I've been thinking about making it apt, so I can
use debian packages.)

I'll try to remember to a copy (and a cd writer)

If you're intrested, bring 1 cdr, & I'll burn you a copy.
