Pfft, amateur. My first was some version of red hat (2? 2.1?) that took me almost a week to download, then I had to compile it, and then load onto, like, eight floppies.
I can’t even tell you how many attempts I made before I actually succeeded in getting it to install, but it was one of the more traumatic experiences of my teenage years.

Slack 2 or 3 here I couldn’t get it to install because it didn’t have CD ROM drivers that worked with mine. Little did teenage me know I could have just copied the disk images to floppies but neither the sound or CD would have worked. I actually just installed it on a VM in Proxmox a couple weeks ago though. Now my windows 3.11 can telnet into my slack 2.3 box because why not.
