I have just borrowed a book from the library (Learn Linux in 24 hours
(!!!)).  This came with a version of Caldera Linux v2.2.5.  Great!

The problem I have is that no matter how much I try I can't get the sound or
the modem to configure - and believe me I have tried everything!  I have now
been using this book for 56 hours and am starting to get wound up!

Also if I download a Linux file via windows is there any way that I can read
it from my linux setup?

    P.s. I had a version of COREL Linux and it used to hand during
installation with an 0X10 error - or something similar - any ideas?

I use Mandrake 7.2 for easier install but I had to use ALSA for my
sound card configuration. ALSA stands for Advanced Linux Sound
Architecture and has successfully detected and installed my sound
card. As for the modem, I have a cable modem and have no clue how to
help you on that one. Although, have you tried KPPP?

For the setup, I don't know but afterwards switch to mnt/windows and
you are there!

Hope this helps!
