Hai , I have been using ubuntu 8.04 , knoppix , BOSS Linux and Puppy Linux for quite some time. I have tried Puppy Linux on a P1 / 266 MHz / 64 MB memory machine with good results. In my opinion , Puppy Linux is the fastest OS distribution capable of working with minimum resources. Bye and Good Luck. NB Iyer.

I am looking for a simple linux distro with following features for few of celeron 256Mb machines.
- Light window manager.
- Networking
- Abword
- and spread sheet.
I tried DSL, knoppix, ubuntu, but non of them work. Any idea, suggestions, but no war ;-)
Try PuppyLinux, Debian with the LXDE desktop, use text based installer.
Thanks, will give a try.
