Author: rjflory@feist.com (Ron Flory) Uploader: hflaxmanmeganet net (Harry Flaxman) Type: misc/unix Architecture: generic Requirements: ------------ Any Amiga from 68020+ WITH a MMU!!! A FPU isn't a neccesaity 'coz you can get a FPU-emulated kernel. But, having one makes life easier. Also, you are gonna need at least 80megs seperate partition for the bare minimum installation. Introduction: ------------ Short: Linux is a Un*x operating system. You won't be reading this if you wanted, eh? Please note: I just found this HOWTO on the newsgroup. it may be faulty. I didn't ask Ron if I may upload to Aminet. But, I don't read the newsgroups often so many people may find this helpful as the last Linux Install HOWTO on Aminet was uploaded in the first half of 1995. We are in March 1997 already.
