It may be possible to find a copy that can be downloaded for free, but this is illegal software piracy. If you need a set of installation disks, we recommend purchasing a used copy from a legitimate source. Windows 3.1 disks are generally available on www.eBay.com in the $10 to $20 range. Windows 3.1 can also be purchased from http://www.recycledsoftware.

You can get the installation disks by downloading the appropriate files from one of the Debian mirrors. The installation system files are separated in subdirectories of dists/stable/main directory, and the names of these subdirectories correspond to your architecture like this: disks-arch (arch is "i386", "sparc", etc, check the site for an exact list).

PuTTY is a 32-bit application from the ground up, so it won't run on Windows 3.1 as a native 16-bit program; and it would be very hard to port it to do so, because of Windows 3.1's vile memory allocation mechanisms. However, it is possible in theory to compile the existing PuTTY source in such a way that it will run under Win-snapshots/htmldoc/Chapter8.html#pubkey">chapter 8 in the documentation ffaq-secure">A.8 Security questions A.8.1 Is it safe for me to dow32s (an extension to Windows 3.
