Hi all, Please suggest me a GNU/Linux distribution with following features:
1. After installing it with CD/DVD, most of packages available for it can be installed from same or another CD/DVD. High speed Internet connection should not be required for installing default packages available for it.
2. It should not be much resource consuming. Should work on an old system such as P-IV with low amount of RAM such as 512MB.
3. Latest version of LAMP related packages should be available on it.
4. It should support Tata Indicom Photon Plus connection.
5. Codes of common audio and video format should be available on it by default.
6. Upgradation process of it should be easy with the CD/DVD of current version.
Best Regards ... Pankaj Kumar

All Linux distros have both DVD versions and online repos. Debian has 5 dvds wiyh everything on them. Nonetheless, you will require netaccess for updates.

ALL distros will work with that amount of Ram
