  Slackware on 3.5" floppies was my first install.

    Remember installing Slackware. Installed their Slackware on DOS partition when I was in 8th grade. Had no idea what I was doing... Moved to FreeBSD in 9th grade because it was a more cohesive operating system.

    And the struggle with xf86config to somehow get the UI working. Ah, memories!

  I started to administer my university unix computers in 1995, including Linux. I rememeber modifying the kernel to account for my NIC. I can say that I mostly knew how my server worked. Now I use Ubuntu LTS and Stack Exchange to run my home server as a platform for docker containers.
