[ltp] Corel Linux v.1.0

[linux-thinkpad@www.bm-soft.com]

I could not get Corel's install to load properly on my 600E (infinite
reboot). Red Hat 6.1 Pro installed after some minor trouble.

I have Corel Linux Deluxe installed on my ThinkPad 385XD, and am quite
happy with it.  I could not get RedHat 5.2, or Mandrake 6 to install at
all,  and could not finish installation with Caldera or TurboLinux
(could not get printing to work).  I can get printing to work on my
Canon 4300 under Linux itself and WordPerfect 8.  After some trouble I
can even get an internet connection.

But be warned, I am not an expert or at all knowleagable about Linux -
I just want the OS to work to I can use the computer to do work.
