Ramon,

  You are writing mail so you must have a internet connection so extract
the dist.fs floppy from (Attention!) ftp.stack.urc.tue.nl an go with
it to a computer shop. Ask for "A COMPUTER THAT CAN RUN THIS FLOPPY"
that's the way i did it.
  You should look at the text after the copyright message for the
devices it lists. Floppies (fd:) Harddisk (wd:) vga (pc:) com ports
(com) should be listed.
  If you want to run SLIP you should be able to after you installed
the patches! (Do you really want to run 2 slip sessions at once? it
should be possible!)

Reinier Kleipool.
