Small Linux version 0.5.0 has been released. This micro
distribution is based on Linux kernel 1.2.11. It will boot on an
Intel machine with at least 2 meg of ram. PLIP and SLIP networking
are available. It uses ELF binaries for libc 5.0. It is useful for
installing Linux on old laptops with small amounts of ram.
Changes include a support diskette with additional
