From: mikebw at bilow.bilow.uu.ids.net (Mike Bilow) Many Linux CDs come with a "live filesystem." This allows you to run Linux from a very minimal configuration, using just a boot floppy, a swap partition on the hard drive, and a CD, without actually installing. Of course, since CD is a slow medium, system performance will be painful. Is there any way to get the kernel to use the hard disk partition to cache the CD as well as process data? Dale -- Dale R.
