On: I thought I found a bug

What a mic drop. That must have been a fun ride from then until now! Would love to hear some of your battle stories.

My first Linux machine was in 1993, what would you like to know? Pre-1.0 Kernels were an adventure that’s for sure.

My first Linux box ran 0.99.10. I was running SLS, which installed off of a dozen or so floppies. I eventually moved to Slackware a year or so later.

SLS was also my first distro. I also played with Yggdrasil Linux (bootable CD) for a while, because at the time, nobody could afford a hard drive with as much capacity as a CD-ROM.

Those early Linux distros borrowed a lot from SunOS (Solaris 1), so it was easy to adapt between work/home.

I remember downloading and installing one of the MCC Interim releases in 1993? 1994? before switching to Slackware. Early *BSD and Linux were certainly an adventure back then. I don't miss it.
