Perhaps this 32MRam EDO is not sufficient for this debian That would really depend on what you mean by sufficient. I have a 486SX 25MHz system with 16 Megs RAM running Woody right now. It works for what I ask it to do. I don't have XFree86 running on it (nor would I really attempt such a thing). But if you're asking whether the hardware can handle the OS, sure it can. If you can give us an idea of what you want to use the system for, I'm sure that someone here can provide you with a better estimate of what to expect. -- Jamin W.

No problem. I've got debian on an Intel 486sx with 8MB FPM RAM. Sure, it thrashes a lot and is really only useful for routing, but it runs. (and apt-get doesn't die with mmap errors like the rh/rpm port does with 96MB EDO RAM) What do you intend to use this machine for? It will surely suffice for common console-based operation (familiarizing yourself with *nix, client-side email handling, web browsing, text editing). You could probably even manage to use LaTeX or even X, but stick with a lightweight windowing environment! HTH, -D -- Thy Word is a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path.

Ciryx 166Mhz and 32MRam EDO. Perhaps this 32MRam EDO is not sufficient for this debian I've got a P75/24 Mo RAM running Debian, it runs a potato : X (with a smal window manager) is available, Netscape 4 is usable. It runs fine as a router, small web/mail/dns/dhcp server and for backups.

I have Debian Woody on a 120 Mhz/48Mb Pentium system. It works fine as a basic Linux system, but it's not a great choice for building kernels or anything. What do you plan on doing with it? How much hard disk do you have? Last I checked it took a little under 250 Mb to install a basic system (nothing from tasksel). Cheers!
