We have an original Pentium 75 MHz PC with 32 MB of RAM we are

Uncompressing Linux... ok, booting the kernel
Searched the list archives. Suggestions from past messages were to
try other kernels. I have tried ltsp_kernel-3.015, ltsp_kernel-3.0.10
and ltsp_kernel-3.0.5 without success.
Is the original Pentium CPU too old? Or is 32 MB of RAM too little?
Other ideas?
I have a similar machine working fine as a thin client. Does it hang or
does the screen go black? I once had an old Pentium with onboard Trident
graphics chipset that was incompatible with framebuffering. The screen
went black at the precise moment you say.
