[ale] slackware, the most...LINUX-like?

Cygwin allows you to run Linux apps on top of Windows but isn't all in a
single file.

Topologilinux is a free Linuxdistribution to be run on top or inside
your
existing windows system. The main thing with Topologilinux is that it
does not
require any partitioning at all. (uses a single file as linux root
system)
Topologilinux is therefore very easy to install.


so, you want me to use a linux distro that is a SINGLE FILE, on an
existing
WINDOWS OS??? gee, let me defrag that :)

Yup, that is why I use. I can't shrink my work computer drive. I guess I
could use wubi, but I love that I can run linux on top of windows. Plus,
it my first distro. I started with Slackware 96. I still have a ton of
the walnut creek CD. If it wasn't for my buying Slackware 96 book and
destorying my built pc trying to install and being hard headed until I
got install, I would not love it as much as I do today. 

Oh, I loose my ambassadorship is I didn't state, that once upon a time
use the same disc set for slackware, as SuSE was base on it.
