Linux On A Disk

A 20.5 or 40 GigaByte IDE Hard Disk Pre-Loaded with Linux
Positively the easiest way to get the Linux Operating System up and
running on your PC.
Perhaps you've heard about Linux, the Unix for PC's that delivers true
32bit preemptive multitasking, netwoking, multimedia, X Windows GUI and
amazing Internet performance. You may have wanted to take it for a spin
but were put off because of the need to down load files, or configure a
CDROM, and then build a file system on a new hard drive partition. It's
a lot to learn before you even have the system up and running.
We have the solution: Linux
on a Disk. A
20.5 GB to 40 GB 3.5" hard disk with a full blown Linux and X Windows
system pre-configured on one half of the drive. The other
half may be used to extend either the Linux or an existing system.
Install
this drive as a second or third (or the only drive in a pure Linux
system) hard disk and install the dual
boot utility. Now you are ready to reboot and log into the Linux prompt
while maintaining your original Dos/Windows, Windows 95/NT, or OS/2 systems.
