Re: Debian on i486

Hello,

I am hopefully going to recieve an old i486 machine, and for kicks, I
thought that it would be nice to install Debian. Does anyone know how
I would go about doing this, as well as how much success I should
expect to get? Obviously, Debian no longer supports i486, but perhaps
there is a way? I would prefer to run Testing, but considering the
cirumstances, I may have to settle for something else.

I would just like to get some advice about the project.

Thanks in advance!

Why won't it run? I'd try sarge with 2.6 kernel (i386) + base install. I have sarge 2.6.8.2-386 running on a amd k6 300 with 64mb, just base system, runs great.
