128 MB is insufficient to install SuSE 9.3, and I am certain that hasn't changed for 10.x. If you have the modules available and can upgrade that system to 256MB or more, try that, but after the system is installed, you'll probably need at least 512MB swap available with only that much memory.
Hmm, that's a pity. Is it not possible to do a very cut-down installation? I was pointed towards SuSE by a couple of people after saying I was looking for a small installation to turn an old computer into a small HTTP/FTP server I can hang off the ORANGE interface of my IPCop box. It runs Win98 acceptably right now, and as I'm only seeking a command line driven, lightly loaded server... That's not to say I don't plan a full install too. I have a dual 700MHz P3 machine with 512MB which has been hijacked by my girlfriend, but when I get it back, it'll be given the Linux treatment (again - I did download Fedora Core 5, but the installation was such a diasaster, with a number of bugs that had to be diagnosed and dealt with, that I eventually gave up), and will be used to run SAMBA, as well as performing desktop tasks with an X server on my XP box... ... or, at least, that's the plan. :) Take care, PJ. -- Image how, it would be, To be at the top, making cash money.
