Should you ever feel sufficiently masochistic I have RH 4.2 kicking around.
It makes Slackware 7 look like... errr.... something very slick, which it's
not.

RH 5 was ok except that the kernel wouldn't compile on my Cyrix 6x86. I also
has 5 kernel panics in as many weeks..... it was time to invest in a
slightly less troublesome processor.
