The first linux os???

well, linux is an os, there is no first or last. it simply is.

The first linux version came when Linus Torwalds released the kernel back  in 
1991. But, iirc, the kernel didn't have network support, much less tcpip.

If you look on google you should be able to find a history of the linux tcpip 
implementation, and probalby also a version of the first iterations.
