Hi, guys. You all expressed an interest in trying out the new
Athena-Linux install process. If you run the command "add linux", you
can find the instructions for the install in
/mit/linux/rh-7.1/install-test/install.ps. Because I haven't released
it yet, you'll need to give the full path to the script that creates the
boot floppy for you, namely
"/mit/linux/rh-7.1/install-test/layered-install-floppy", rather than
just "layered-linux-install". The instructions should otherwise be
accurate.
Let me know if anything goes wrong (or right!)
Alex.
