November 1995 for me too, got slackware 2.0 on a CD, since there was no
way to recognize my CD player (Mitsumi 4x), had to copy the full
distribution to a DOS partition then use loadlin with it. It used kernel
1.0.9 which came without support for my soundblaster clone card. At this
time I started spending more time on the command line and less under
Windows, happy days.
