Hi folks, do you know of *any* way to install Suse 7.1 on the following machine: 486/66 DX 8 MB RAM (yes I know that´s the problem) 250 MB HDD NE 2000 compatible Network-Card Or if you know of any simple way to install another Linux Distríbution on the machine? In fact, I would like to use the machine as a webserver running Apache, PHP, MySQL. So, what I am looking for is a simple way to get all this up and running; no compiling etc. if possible. Thanks for any hint! Cheers - Claude Hoffmann Blue Saturn GmbH Langwattstr. 21 CH-8125 Zollikerberg T: +41 1 391 29 26 F: +41 1 391 29 35 http://www.bluesaturn.com

Its best to rip a cdrom drive form anotherbox , do the install, reboot , and when its all working put the cdrom back.Make sure you select the 486 kernal and not then pentuim optimized one. It takes a long tome for the post install scripts to run , very long.

http://neworder.box.sk/showme.php3?id=4293 A friend of mine has been hit on a Cobalt RaQ4 server (running a 'customised' version of Red Hat). Anybody hit yet in the SuSE community? Any hands-on experience would be appreciated. Thomas Beauchamp No Problem Net Ltd
