I went digging through some archives to find out more "real" numbers, not
based on my memory. Turns out that the 23 floppy figure was from the
original Slackware 1.0. By the time I installed it in v2.0, the arguable
base system (a, ap, d, n, x, xap) was 27 disks. I installed the entire
thing, though... a full 66 disks!
