Linux finally installed!

Linux finally installed!

[Alex Snow]

Hi All,

Well, I finally got a linux box! All I need now is to get a network card for
it and a nullmodem cable to connect my synth to the machine.  Then we setup
everything I'm gonna need and bingo!

It's a pentium 100 I think running slackware 8.1.  The size of the hd is
unknone, I'll have to check into that.
Explorer has caused a general protection fault in module kernel32.dll. I'm
sick of Winblows!

Hi Alex,

You can learn more about your hardware by looking at files in the /proc
directory.  Just do ls and then more on the name of a file that looks
interesting, such as the file cpuinfo...

Use the df -k command to see the vital stats on all mounted file systems,
including your hard disk, of course...
