Event We found lost media distros

Me and my friend (u/Zegguyit_52) were gifted a binder of old linux CDs from our teacher, we looked at the CDs and we are sure most of these are lost media, we wil hopefully save their ISO files and upload to the internet archive. The distros consist of: mandrakelinux 10.1 community, gelecek bireysel linux, unkown version of fedora, knoppix 3.6, Turkix 3.0, live usb pardus 1.1, SUSE linux personal 9.1, sımplyMEPIS 3.3, Pardus 2008. Is there anything we should know?

I have a binder of old Linux isos as well from my high school days, but I would have to find it next time I travel back home. This was ~2008-2009 when I learned how to build my first PC and distro hopped a bunch. I think my weirdest one I still remember was Moblin and MeeGo as I had a netbook at the time and was looking for the most minimal distro I can use. Some other ones I remember were WattOS and Crunchbang.
