When the world made sense...
It would have been around this time - 97/98 - that I first set up Red Hat 4 as a dual boot with Windows 95. No hoops to run through, really, except endless fiddling with PPP to get some sort of internet connection.
The thing came on a magazine cd-rom, and as my pc either didn't do cd-booting or I didn't know it did, I had to cook a couple of floppies from provided images, presumably using my beloved Disk Copy Fast. Download was out of the question. Largest thing I did in that respect back then was StarOffice - a whooping 52 Mb package which took five or six hours, done at night when phone rates were lower.
Later, I got rid of the Windows partition...
