is this site on your personal server? or are you paying for one? if it is yours what kinda connection do you have?bad_brain wrote:well,for me it´s still RedHat9 Enterprise, simply for the fact that it´s on my server...
but I´ll switch to Fedora soon because the support for RH9 has been ended..
think it would run good on a 700mh celeron with 128 mb or ram. normally wouldn't bother with such a slow machine but i think im going to put it in my carGODhack wrote:Puppy linux is the best for me.
Why?
1)Small,
2)easy to start from cd or usb or hdd or external hdd or...
3)fast - doesn't just work; it runs happily in most every computer!
Puppy Rocks!
MEPIS, Knoppix, Baltix(distro localized for my country) and Ubuntu also is good.
man, it would run REALLY good on a 700mHz box....my RedHat home server is just a P2 and it works fine. and such small distros are even optimized for really slow systems by using slim window managers like Fluxbox, so even the cheapest/slowest graphics card and CPU is enough.magiceiko wrote: think it would run good on a 700mh celeron with 128 mb or ram. normally wouldn't bother with such a slow machine but i think im going to put it in my car
sweet ill have to make it a project on day and try it. so far debian has been the best but man i tryed installing the newest fedora and the newest mandriva and boy did it run slow.bad_brain wrote:man, it would run REALLY good on a 700mHz box....my RedHat home server is just a P2 and it works fine. and such small distros are even optimized for really slow systems by using slim window managers like Fluxbox, so even the cheapest/slowest graphics card and CPU is enough.magiceiko wrote: think it would run good on a 700mh celeron with 128 mb or ram. normally wouldn't bother with such a slow machine but i think im going to put it in my car
