M8.1 is a bit slow - lots of swapping, particularly if you use KDE2.2 M7.1 can be installed from a dos partition on a 50, and runs well, particularly with icewm. Haven't tried it with apache though. Getting hold of the 7.1 installation is a bit tricky but Matt has one now - he might be persuaded to copy it. _________________________________________________________________ MSN Photos is the easiest way to share and print your photos: http://photos.msn.com/support/worldwide.aspx ************************************************************** http://libretto.basiclink.com - Libretto mailing list http://libretto.basiclink.com/archive - Archives http://www.picante.com/~gtaylor/portable/faq.html - FAQ -------TO UNSUBSCRIBE------- Reply to any of the list messages.
