I have Debian Lenny running on a 1 GHz Pentium 3 here. It works. As others have pointed out Redhat 6 is pretty old today and is no longer being supported. As far as RAM goes that machine has 512MB and I think it is using about 3.2GB space on its hard disk. A bootchart from that machine: http://img87.imageshack.us/img87/2250/wedoct27bootchart.png 16 second boot not bad. ------------------------------------ To unsubscribe from this list, please email [email protected] & you will be removed.Yahoo!
