And if xubuntu will work, but won't fit on the hard drive, get the alternate installation CD, and do a minimal alternate (Debian) installation from that. I did that recently on my 132.774 MHz 68 MB firewall. I have X on it (so I can SSH in and run emacs on it), and it fits in just over a GB. -- Charles Curley /"\ ASCII Ribbon Campaign Looking for fine software \ / Respect for open standards and/or writing?
