Re: Small debian install
You got faster machine!
Just a reminder. If you are not emacs freak ot TEX talker,
at the start of dselect select, make sure to disable(Purge)
them manually. They are resource hungly.
I have 486DX4 50MHz 24MB IBM Thinkpad which used to run RH5.2 with X
(May have been loaded with potato but never booted recently this baby)
Do not forget to select task-newbie or console mode MC (midnight
commander) so you can live without X.
It may take more than few second to get X stasrting. Heavy X window
mager like E with default setting was brutal. I could live with
fvwm or something light. Avoid high res X, too.
Have fun.
