It mostly depends on what you want to do. I suggest you to look at the HOWTOs first. There is one (which name I don't have on hand) that is about running Linux on 8 MB laptops.
You may think about Peanut Linux, Tiny Linux, or creating your own set of files (take a look at the Linux From Scratch HOWTO). -Manuel. -----Original Message----- From: "Ian Truelsen" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "RedHat List" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Thu, 03 Jan 2002 00:40:40 GMT Subject: Small Linux distro > I am looking to install linux on an old laptop, specifically a 486SX25 > MHz > processor with 8M RAM and a 127 MB hard drive.
