And if you don't want bigger and better, then why doesn't that apply to software? Run opensuse 10, 9, or 8 if 11 doesn't work on some old hardware.
I do actually. I have SuSE 8.1 on an old Thinkpad that only takes 96MB RAM.
I can beat that with my firewall, a 486DX2 running SUSE 7.1 in just 24Mb RAM. The machine is about 16 years old, and has gone through three harddisks by now. I'm about to replace the whole thing because I want to do traffic-shaping, but otherwise I would probably start using a compact flash disk instead. -- /Per Jessen, Zürich -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
