Finally managed to get my hands on some P2 350s with 64 MB and 4 GB. CDROM thrown in too. (atleast in one of them). it has 98 for now, but planning to use a stripped down version of ubuntu. if there was ever such a thing.
Try Damn Small Linux (http://www.damnsmalllinux.org/) it supports HDD Install and very light.
My basic (and probably only requirements are)
- Wine
- The two browsers. FF and IE.
- a teeny .exe application that will be run over wine just like IE.
DSL is Debian based and after installation you can use apt to install whatever you want.
Am pretty sure the above config should meet those needs, but is there any further stripping i need to do while installing the standard ubuntu 6.06 dapper drake to make it more lightweight?
According to DSL site, all you need is 486 with 16 MB of RAM!
No need to reinvent the wheel.
thanks abhi
