I manged to find something after sending the email last night.  But I'm 
having trouble accessing them.  As such, I'm still interested to know if 
other people have a copy.

I say trouble accessing them because the HJ 0.99pl7 Bootable Root disk 
can't mount the XiaFS base disk images.  Further, when I try to mount 
them from Slackware 3.1 ('96) after loading the XiaFS module, things 
don't work correctly.  df shows that there is different amounts of 
content on the three base disk images.  But doing an ls on the mount 
point returns an error.  (I don't have the error handy.)

Someone responded to me on Twitter this morning with a link to some 
other files, but I've not yet had an opportunity to try them.
