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 actually 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.
