Slack vs. FreeBSD
Answer me this (if you want of course) Why would the FreeBSD and RH7.3 install CD's boot in this dinosaur I have, but not the Slack9.1 and 8.0 install CD's ? and yes the Slack cd's are bootable, I tested them in this computer.. Any ideas?

Well, the wife finally got off her computer, and I attempted to create the boot and root floppies on there.. (win98) and guess what.. it actually worked.. So, I spent the better part of the day, trying to create these damn disks when all I had to do was go in the other room and do it.. oh well..


thanx anyways
