Yeah, thats what I have on the TT.

I have the full 4-CD Set, and its called "Potato Linux" Sad name I know, but thats the release name. Its the same for all platforms for that particular kernel thank god.

I am doing up a copy of the CD's for a mate in the next few days, so does anyone want a copy while I am going to do them?

This particular release is an absolute tured to setup, but once its on, its a doddle to use, its bloody fast too, and it can setup anything hardware wise that I have attached, such as using the DMA Sound & Replay cart together, it saw the Graphics, and set that up nicely, and it reads the TT format Disks as well as the VFAT ones, which I did expect it to of course, and it will run a mouse from any of the serial ports, or the standard mouse port, so its not a quick fix to shut Atari users up, its a full-on system.

Trouble is though, its not too keen on systems without much ram.... It needs at least 8MB to run at any fair pace.
