..or are they too early!!

Also got a 6cd Linux archive from 97  with quite a few distros on!

Also got a mad distro called LinuxFT.  basically it ran from cd, but
created a symlinked filesystem on the hard drive. Whenever a file on the
cd got accessed it transparently copied it across to the hard drive, and
overwrote the symlink.  So supposedly you could start using the distro
immediately, and over time you would get a complete system on the hard
drive.  Understandably I don't think it caught on!!!

As to the mags, I'll check no.s
