Ok, SLS is now available at tsx-11.mit.edu:/pub/linux/SLS.
But since it totals about 17 Meg or so, I caution all but
the most zealous against obtaining it. Basically just
testers please.
The reason I am posting and not mailing just the testers, is
that I am away on maternity, my machine has been toasted for
me so that I have no mail access. Good timing eh? So just
post test results please, since I can not receive your mail
right now.
If all goes ok, after a week or so, other FTP sites could
pick it up. It should be pretty apparent by then what the
collective opinion is.
BTW: If there are any comments about other software that should
be added, please let me know. I insist upon keeping it to 15 disks
for now, but there is still some room left (not much though).
But, if you just want to bitch about how it should contain
the source tree, or should have all the alpha kernels and
tcpip alpha, etc, please consider using 386BSD. The goal of SLS
is to maintain a balance between small and featureful, with
an emphasis on the former.
Peter.
