There are thousands of Red Hat 3.0.3 CD's on the net. We encourage anyone
with one to make it available for distribution via ftp, NFS, or whatever.
We don't want to encourage folks to use 3.0.3 as it had more bugs then
Colgate (believe it or not). Many of the bugs weren't widely reported and
hence only got fixed in house, but they were still bugs.
