[Coco] My Linux is now online!

Red Hat Linux 9.0 is ->  ONLINE !!!!

Google came up in Mozilla after I unchecked the "Device Alias Number 
= 1" setting in the Ethernet Device menu.

Drum roll, please?!?!

Now, I'll play around for a few minutes, then it's off to installing 
my favorite language HLA so that I can port CCASM over to Linux and 
then get the CoCo Cafe's CGI-BIN script that I wrote upgraded.

I have some questions:

What tools do I need for reading/writing reliable 360K CoCo floppy 
disks from Linux, and how well is the support for my 5.25" clunkers?
How hard is it to get Samba (Windows<->Linux file sharing?) to work 
under Red Hat 9?

I just issued "smbd -V" and it reports Version 2.2.7a so I guess I 
have it installed.  I remember adding all the packages I could when I 
first installed RH from the CDs.
