Running Linux From CDROM

Apologies for top-posting...  I don't want to mix my comments with his...

Mr. Charles, you are spamming the list.

In the message below, it is not evident that you have any honestly
Linux-relevant question.  And the bulk of the message looks as though
it's information on how to "pirate" some old DOS games from somewhere,
which probably involves breaking copyright and is terribly
inappropriate.

Keep this up and you'll get yourself booted off the mailing list. 
That's no matter of xenophobia; if you behave badly, you'll get the
boot.
