Hi,

I'm happy to announce that I have just released version 2.0a of the
Linux/m68k installation guide (for Amiga computers, mostly).

Changes from V2.0 to 2.0a (06.12.1995) 

    Just some internal fixes - typos, wrong .ps output for some Latin-1 
    characters, and one section was diff'ed manually incorrectly. Don't 
    bother, V2.0 was only on the FTP server a few hours, and there was no 
    announcement for it yet. :-) 

Changes from V1.0a to 2.0 (05.12.1995) 

  - removed references to the MeetingPearls II CD as the information in 
    there is not really up to date anymore 
  - removed a couple of "Tips and Gotchas" which are obsolete now - however, 
    some of them have been put into the FAQ as that's the place where they 
    really belong 
  - added sub-item to Tips section for exchanging files using MS-DOS partitions 
     general cleanups 
  - added section "A first check" 
  - added section "Installation of the X window system" 
  - added some notes about 0.9 vs. 1.2 kernels 


The most important change, however, is that it has been rewritten in
linuxdoc-sgml, meaning that it's available in a couple of different
formats now - HTML, PostScript and plain text (the info version does
not work yet).

It's available online from:

	http://www.informatik.uni-oldenburg.de/~amigo/inst.html

or via ftp:
	ftp://ftp.informatik.uni-oldenburg.de/pub/amiga/linux/local/docs/
		InstGuide_v2.0a.ps.gz  (PostScript for printing on A4 paper)
		InstGuide_v2.0a.txt.gz (plain text, best viewn with less)
		InstGuide_v2.0a_html.tar.gz (HTML pages to feed your own httpd :)

Those of you who have WWW pages with a link to the old file 
(ftp://ftp.informatik.uni-oldenburg.de/pub/amiga/linux/local/docs/
  Install-Linux_m68k.doc)

should update their links to the above mentioned URL.

Enjoy,
Frank
