I have an old motherboard/BIOS no large disk support and all that. I
don't think it does any of that sort of thing so I should be right??
Not sure about setting the irqs.
Still deciding whether to use a newer (RH, 2.2.14-12 shiny & new)
or older (Debian with 2.0.36---tried & true) kernel.

Yes. You have explained everything perfectly.
This is a "junk box special" type of thing mostly cobbled up from
club members' donated 'cast-offs'.
I aim to get members more interested in the insides of their
computers and linux in particular and end up with a versatile packet system
with member-oriented services. Its a big learning curve for us all!
Thanx again for sharing your experience.
