I've got some InfoMagic discs with floppy images around here
somewhere (frikkin' packrat) if you want them.
I'm curious if there's a VM that emulates an old enough PC for them
to boot, though I expect an emulator in a VM could handle that problem.
By time my friend, Jim Hart, convinced me to try Linux, Slackware was
out (with an IP stack!), so I'm not really sure what Yggdrasil
supported, myself.
Funny thing is I'm doing some work later today on a new project using
a Slackware-based distro. (first time in ~12 years)
