Installing Linux Like It's 1999 - eviltoast
https://www.pcbway.com - PCB fabrication, assembly, 3D printing, CNC machining & more! Red Hat Linux 6.1 was released in October 1999, 25 years ago this month! So let's install it out on period...

What has your experience with Linux been like so far? How long has been your Linux journey? Mine began while I was studying computer science, and I’ve been in love with Linux since.

    I got a Redhat book with boot CD from my cousin (RMS’s lost twin, a total geek) in 1999, later studied Linux and CLI at university and in 2002 built myself a server running SuSe, but it took me 7 more years to fully transition to Linux on all my machines as I still had a box with XP for gaming until then. Every new windows iteration solidifies my aversion to MS products even further and every new version of the kernel, KDE, Wayland, Proton, etc. makes me love the GNU/Linux ecosystem so much more.
