Comments/Problems:
This is, what, the fifth or sixth time I've installed Debian on this
old monster, and it went exactly as expected (or better; usually I
have to work around the onboard network card). The standard kernel
takes a long time to find the root filesystem, but then again this
machine takes over a minute to get through its BIOS, so I don't
blame it. Now all I need to do is find a use for this machine.
