I would first like to thank all of you who responded to my post with
information and suggestions.  

I bought the Infomagic CDROM  with the RedHat4.0, Slackware96, Debian
distributions, XFreee86 3.2,and Metro-X server among other goodies.  I
started out with the RedHat installation and did not have any
problems installing it, then I installed the Metro-X server without
anyproblems except an oversight on my part.  LILO installed and worked
first time around.  Now I have Linux/XWindows system
working like a charm! 

Just to recap, here is the hardware on which I installed;

Cyrix 133MHz CPU
Matrox Millennium video card with 4MB RAM
Idek IIyama Vision MAster Pro 17" monitor
Toshiba IDE CDROM
Teac Floppy
2 G Hard Drive

P.S:  Infomagic's customer service has been great.  A completely broken
(during shipping) CD jewel case(6 CD) was replaced in 2 days by
priority mail.
