+LINUX INFORMATION SHEET 
+
+
+1. WHAT IS LINUX 0.11 
+     LINUX 0.11 is a freely distributable UNIX clone. It is almost 
+fully System V compatible. LINUX has been written from scratch, and 
+therefore does not contain any AT&T or MINIX code--not in the kernel, 
+the compiler, the utilities, or the libraries. For this reason it can 
+be made available with the complete source code via anonymous FTP. 
+Sorrily, it runs only on 386/486 AT-bus-machines. EISA will probably do 
+too, but you need an AT-Bus controller for your harddisk. 
+
+
+     Version 0.11 is still a beta release, but it provides almost full 
+functionality. Various users have been able to compile bigger projects 
+like bison/flex by only changing the makefile to their needs, and these 
+tools are fully functional. 
+
+
+2. LINUX features 
+  - System call compatible with V7 of the UNIX operating system 
+  - Full multiprogramming (multiple programs can run at once) 
+  - Memory paging with copy-on-write 
+  - Demand loading of executables 
+  - Page sharing of executables 
+  - ANSI compliant C compiler (gcc) 
+  - A complete set of compiler writing tools 
+    (bison as yacc-replacement, flex as lex replacement) 
+  - The gnu-born again shell (bash) 
+  - Micro emacs 
+  - most utilities you need for development 
+    (cat, cp, kermit, ls, make, etc.) 
+  - Over 200 library procedures (atoi, fork, malloc, read, stdio, etc.) 
+  - Currently 3 national keyboards: finnish/us/german 
+  - Full source code (in C) for the OS is freely distributable 
+  - Full source code of the tools can be gotten from many anonymous ftp sites 
+    (It's almost completel the GNU project) 
+  - Runs in protected mode on 386 and above 
+  - Support for extended memory up to 16M on 386 and above 
+  - RS-232 serial line support with terminal emulation, kermit, zmodem, etc. 
+  - Supports the real time clock 
+
+
+
+3. HARDWARE REQUIRED 
+   - A 386 or 486 machine that is an AT-bus-machine. EISA will probably do 
+     too. 
+   - An IDE hard disk is required to use this system. 
+   - Both 5.25" and 3.5" diskettes are supported 
+   - At least 2 megabytes of RAM is required for LINUX to be operational, 
+     but gcc will only work from 4 MB on. 
+   - Any video card will do 
+   - Up to two serial lines are supported 
+   - The real time clock is supported 
+
+
+4. PARTIAL LIST OF UTILITIES INCLUDED IN OR AVAILABLE FOR LINUX 0.10 
+   - The MTOOLS package (reading/writing to DOS) 
+   - The complete GNU filetools (ls,cat,cp,mv,...) 
+   - The GNU C compiler with GNU assembler,linker,ar,... 
+   - bison 
+   - flex 
+   - rcs 
+   - pmake (BSD 4.2 make) 
+   - kermit 
+   - Micro emacs 
+   - less 
+   - mkfs 
+   - fsck 
+   - mount/umount 
+
+
+
+5. LINUX BINARIES 
+    The LINUX binaries (including all the tools) are available at three 
+    anonymous FTP sites. These are: 
+    nic.funet.fi:/pub/OS/Linux 
+    tsx-11.mit.edu 
+    tupac-amaru.informatik.rwth-aachen.de:/pub/msdos/replace 
+
+
+
+6. LEGAL STATUS OF LINUX 
+     Although LINUX is supplied with the complete source code, it is 
+copyrighted software. But it is, opposite to MINIX available for free, 
+provided you obey to the rules specified in the LINUX copyright. 
+
+
+
+7. NEWS ABOUT LINUX 
+     Since LINUX's introduction to the public there has been a rapidly 
+growing mailing list, "linux-activists@joker.cs.hut.fi". To subscribe 
+to this list, mail to "linux-activists-requests@joker.cs.hut.fi". If 
+the traffic in this lists increases further, there are plans to swap 
+(at least partially) over to comp.os.misc, so watch out for any LINUX 
+articles in this group. If you simply want to know whats the current 
+state of the art, do a "finger torvalds@kruuna.helsinki.fi", and you'll 
+get some information. 
+
+
+
+8. FUTURE PLANS 
+     The major current project is bringing LINUX to a version number 
+greater than 1.0. It has also to undergo some (minor) revisions to be 
+compatible to the IEEE POSIX P1003.1 and P1003.2 standards. Various 
+people are currently working on 
+     - math support/fp emulation in the kernel 
+     - Page swapping (since paging is alreay implemented) 
+     - A virtual filesystem layer 
+     - STREAMS
