I am going to try something like this with a 486DX2 66 with 16 megs of RAM
and a 240 meg hard drive.
I want to do a minimum install of RH 5 or 6. then I will sell try to sell
it for 75 or a hundred bucks as a basic Linux box. No X of course and a 40
meg swap file.
Question:
When doing such a small install what should I choose to install ?
thanks
