Whatever Slackware that came with

The book was a christmas gift. So that would be winter of '94-95..

I don't remember what the kernel is, but I do remember damaging my 20 MB
hard drive with some hdparm stuff.  (I did get more cylinders out of the
drive.. but I tried for one too many and killed the drive.  Gotta love
those old MFM drives..  I don't think IDE drives let you do this.)
