Back when I tried Linux in 1999 (I believe), my dad had a copy of Slackware '96
and I remember having to create a floppy disk to boot from, and then I stopped
at the command prompt (BASH) and then restarted the comouter to go back to
Windows. It was pretty daugnting for my teenage with no experience in Linux
back then.

Hm, I wonder as an adult with some experience in Linux (apparently, enough to
use Arch Linux), if I can do it.  Meh, I don't have time to do it at this point
in my life. :(
