How to compile linux 0.0.0.1?

[Bruno Avila]

 Hi people,


       I can't find this anywhere. What is the version of the tools to
compile linux kernel 0.0.0.1 (../Historic)? And where can i find them?

                                               Bruno Avila

Well, first you have to find a good source of obsidean, a couple of sharp
rocks, and some flint...

I have a friend who's a flintknapper.  He's been doing it for decades and 
does good work.  I'm sure he could set you up with raw materials or with 
finished products, i.e. arrowheads, knife blades, etc.

Yeah, but then you have to find the buffalo and that gets hard.  (Actually
Linus used a carabou, but those are even harder to find...)

Well, I remember back to 0.12ish and the Caribou around here
(Alaska) were plentiful then.  Ah, those were the days.

<offtopic level=2>
I did find my 0.95 disk the other day (Yggdrasil distro) and
toyed with the idea of installing it, just to see how much
things had really changed.  But i don't have anything
pre-80686 :-(

If you wish to make a [kernel] truly from scratch, you must first
invent the universe.

They are still plentiful in Norway, and I suspect they are in Finland
as well.
