Hi there,

I've got an old toshiba satellite laptop and want to put suse 9.2 
fluxbox, abiword and other smallish apps on it.

However, before I can get to install I am told that the system does not 
have enough memory to run yast and needs a swap.

Since 64 mb is not enough to run knoppix or mephis I am unsure how to 
proceed (that is get the swap set up).

I tried gentoo for a laugh but stumbled straight away at fdisk /dev/hda 
(unable to seek on /dev/hda).

Can I still try Suse or should I go for another distro? if so, any 
recommendations?

Thanks in advance

Ingo
