I have an ancient computer: Intel Celeron 700Mhz, 512MB RAM, 20GB IDE HD.

(Hardware upgrades are not in the picture.)
Thanks to all for the give advice.
In the end I have installed Debian 8.3.0 XFCE on my geriatric system.
(I tested some other systems, but their installers just froze.)
It's up and running.
It feels rather slower than Suse 10.0 though.
I managed to install fpc 3.0 (from install script, did not install from .deb)
I managed to build Lazarus from svn.
That took some 30 minutes, and at one time I thought the system had
frozen, but it was just the linker taking ages (and probably being
very memory hungry).
I dealt with the infamous "crti.o not found" message.
As we speak I'm typing this in Iceweasel!
Bye for now.
Bart

Hi Bart,
Congrats on getting the old-timer to work.
Also congrats on getting rid of the crti.o message. I have been
ignoring those messages for years because they don't seem to do anything
bad, but I sure would like to get rid of them. How did you do it?
Thanks,
Don Ziesig
