The CD set on the web site is for distributors, not end-users. To install from CD, get a copy of the CD Distribution - one that's advertised here is www.li.org. I've just bought a set from them, but still waiting to receive it. > > I also would like to be able to boot to Windows 95 if I need to - is this > > possible with your LINUX distribution?

This might be possible, but won't be easy and would still require a backup.

Debian 1.3.x currently "installs" 2.0.29, which is very comparable to 2.0.30. However, you can easily "upgrade" to 2.0.30 at any time because this newer kernel is included with the Debian 1.3 distribution.
