Too big. Refuses to boot a dvd, swear I saw it write one once. Trying a
Centos 7 i386 cdrom over the network install, found a repo still online.

This looks promising, bootable maybe even... giving it

I have a really old Red Hat "Live" CD
you can have. It should be 32
bit. But, I would think that there would be archives where you can get
what you want. For example archive.fedoraproject.org goes all the way
back to Fedora 10 and has 32 and 64 bit iso images for v10 that will fit on
a CD. I would think it would be the same for other distros.
But if you want a current release, you are probably out of luck.

After an all night session of drunken research
I've come to the
conclusion
there are no 32 bit linux distros left that will
fit on a CD-R and

install a desktop, hell DVD-R either. Was going
to give my faithful old
Dell i486 laptop to a neighbor kid to play with but I think it's dead
Jim.
Suggestions?
Those that are left seem to only boot from media and will not install
anything to a hard disk.
Must be a screen door blowing shut somewhere that could use it, pretty
heavy.
