==== VortexBox 2.3 and 2.2 iso installs ====

This image can be used to build a VortexBox on very old hardware. They are not recommended! These images are here for archival purposes and many not even work!

If you have old hardware go out and buy yourself a modern j1800 based system for under $100. Then you can use VortexBox 2.4. This will save you a lot of time and frustration.
