Thanks James,
First, I apologise for wrong spell check, my mistake, no excuses.
Two, it was not Redhat but some flavour (not exactly meaning that), something before 'slackware', was it? I really cannot recall. There was real difficulty to squeeze selection of packages along with swap size requirement plus working space. I remember doing lot of 'defrag' to get that swap file in place. Yes files were on / no special big file, but more probably on d: (bcoz, c: was not to be touched) and it was lilo. AFAIR.
Three, game was important than illegal; for us partition handling was very very difficult to get right, so we never used to even attempt - same as illegal. This was meant to be on the lighter side, went off and rather became heavy!
Four, I missed shifting one full line (second one) , so the missed context of lines, again my mistake ctrl-x, ctrl-v, no excuses.

Five, We had a Guru colleague (1995~97) who led us Linux way, made it work for us. but we had to give it up. It was in office and there, windows was more productive; yes, in those days, the easy way out not the best and where *.dwg files weighed in favour of win.
Last but above all, I appreciate your telling me so politely, decisively that I have to improve; I must, and specially thank you just for that.

PS : I hope snip / trim is OK.
