Is there something i'm missing here (WAS Which version of Debian will run on my system?)



surely you could run even a 2.4 kernel on a 386 with 8 Mb of ram?

I thought it was the Window managers and applications you chose to ran on linux that dicated the hardware specs.. not the distribution version?

if i'm wrong i'd better find out why because it means i'm worng about a lot of stuff.....
