yeah it’s kind of crazy… I’m just glad that I was able to snag a copy it’d be a damned shame to lose that kind of history (again) ….

It is funny just how easy it is to lose this kind of stuff.

Luckily the mirrors work (including the one at kernel.org – it did work before the security breach of last week).

As did I… Ironically oldlinux.org is down yet again, but http://www2.oldlinux.org/ is still up.. Just as well it’s been further mirrored!

I finally got it all mirrored. The ‘Oldlinux’ part (the website part) is 243MiB, and the ‘Linux.old’ part is 5.9GiB

if you’re interested in later versions too, you can get 6.2 through 9 from here: http://ftp1.scientificlinux.org/linux/redhat/

I have Red Hat 3.03 in my collection – its the oldest one I have. Do you want it?

The ISOs are either completely gone or were never available for download, which seems hard to believe. There are some scattered files available here and there, but because Red Hat required a CD to install (or NFS, which is even harder), it’s kinda tricky to set up.

Yeah I’ve still wound up losing more then I care to think about…. I guess we can only keep so much? Which is kind of funny looking at the price of a 1TB disk these days.
