@madcap one of the downsides of #MiniLinux is that you couldn't have it with DoubleSpace, so installing it was cutting down your hdd space in half, plus the 15Mb it occupied after installing. Worth it! 😉

@marado #myfirstdistro also was #MiniLinux. Not many people know that distro but since I didn't have much disk space and my PC was shared with my brother, it was my only.

#myfirstdistro was #MiniLinux. Later, a better machine got #RedHat 5.0. From 5.2 I jumped to #Mandrake, and a change of hardware led me to @debian , the distro that still has my heart.

how about a nice old version of Tom's RootBoot floppy?
