[linrad] New Knoppix CD uploaded

[w3sz <w3sz@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

There is a new version of the Linrad Knoppix CD uploaded to Leif's site.   
As before, the reference to the CD is from Rein's page:

http://www.nitehawk.com/linrad_dat/

As Zaba suggested, the distros will be numbered yyyy-mm-dd, so this is  
linradknoppix-2005-05-15.

The changelog for the various versions is at
http://www.sm5bsz.com/w3sz/linradknoppixchange.txt

The changes since the last edition are:

More widespread clean-up of unnecessary files to reduce size
Greater attempt to remove configuration files peculiar to w3sz hardware
Linrad version updated to Linrad-01.34
Linrad directory changed from /knuser/linrad-01.33 to /knuser/linrad
Linrad par* files removed from /knuser/linrad directory

I have made several CD's of the new iso after uploading it to Leif's site  
and then downloading it, and it seems to work fine here.  I have uncovered  
no new 'issues'.

If you go to the Rein's link or directly to my link page, you will  
download the new version.  I will delete the old version, which currently  
doesn't have a direct link, tomorrow after giving any downloads that might  
be in progress a chance to complete.

I came across a superb, easy-to-read book on Knoppix today while at  
Borders to get some College Guides for my daughter.  It is "Knoppix Hacks:  
100 Industrial-Strength Tips and Tools", by Kyle Rankin.  It goes from the  
very basic to some very advanced tips.  If you want to play around with  
Knoppix a bit and if like me you are not a computer expert, you will find  
this very helpful and fun.  If you basically don't want to play with Linux  
at all, you won't want the book.  If you are a real expert, you won't want  
it either.  But if like me you are somewhere in the middle, you will find  
this a very helpful, enjoyable, interesting book.  I got it this afternoon  
and have already finished its 300+ pages. O-Reilly press.

I also found a nice book on "Linux Shell Scripting with Bash:  A  
comprehensive guide and reference for Linux users and administrators" by  
Ken O. Burtch.  It looks very good too, but I have just skimmed a dozen or  
so pages so far.  It looked like it would be very helpful for script  
writing, moreso than other books I'd picked up in the past.  And I still  
find a paper book easier to read than a bunch of computer screens ;)  
Developer's Library.
