Ah, Yggdrasil Linux!
The Fall 1994 CD has been my first ever contact with the Linux world. I was with some colleagues doing some shopping for my company at that IT store, saw the CD and recalled that some friends on the local BBS (social media? What social media?!?) were praising it, so bought it and that's when it all started. Well, not quite, because the CD was damaged with errors about in the middle of the operation, which was very long, therefore hard to spot, and the installation procedure would continue anyway, so in the end I had a system which was bootable but often gave errors about files missing, this and that. I had no Internet connection back then, so I played with it as much as I could, but in the end had to wait a couple years before finding a perfectly working copy of Red Hat bundled within a magazine, and that became the actual start.
