Hello! Back around the early days of Linux, I ran a 2.2.18 kernel setup on a Dell. It was connected to the Internet via an external modem, (the Dell normally ran Windows 98SE and the modem was an internal Windows only one.) I would from time to time visit the FTP site behind UU NET and noted the presence of compressed source code archives. I would then download any of them, and extract them appropriately, they were SHAR archives, and I was able to do so. Naturally not all of them would work. That is to compile using the tools found in those days. I do not even think they will work today. Naturally when the vendor behind the site was bought by Verizon, I noted that it all went away. Would anyone besides Dave M, know where the site was saved to before it was turned off by mistake. (I wrote and asked Dave M directly.) Oh and the dino is asleep until July. ---- Gregg C Levine gregg.drwho8@gmail.com "This signature was once found posting rude messages in English in the Moscow subway."
