Version 0.7.2 of <a href="http://smalllinux.netpedia.net/">Small
Linux</a> has been  released with many <a
href="http://smalllinux.netpedia.net/changes.html">changes</a>

Hi all,

I have uploaded a new version of Small Linux, version 0.7.2 Nov 18, 1999

uses kernel 2.0.0 compiled with:
   ps/2 mouse driver
    slip
    ppp
    iso9660

Changes
 layout of file system has been changed, all executibles are in the /bin

directory
 added loadkeys and /etc/kbd/default.map. Users with foreign keyboards
should be
    able to modify it for their keyboards - I only have a US keyboard.
init works differently now, more like TOMS disk, less like full Linux
distros.

 added:
   free
   vi
   more

Still uses libc 5.0.

I am uploading to sites in this order:
