Re: I can not decide because of an old notebook. Need Help
If you want it easy, go to Distrowatch.com and select one of the live CDs there. You should try out FreeSBIE, Frenzy, Damn Small Linux, and Vector Linux. First two are FreeBSD based while the last two are linux-based. You can run them as a live CD or use them as installers. --- Stojance <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Dear FreeBSD > I really like your OS and I want to install it on a > really old Toshiba > Notebook (lap-Top).

I can not decide because of an old notebook. Need Help
Dear FreeBSD I really like your OS and I want to install it on a really old Toshiba Notebook (lap-Top). It has a 4GB HDD and 64 or 32 MB RAM; Pentium II; and I don't know the other specs. While reading the installation manual I got confused. Is there a faster way for configuring all the stuff, without all of the questions; or an automatic Mouse, screen, keyboard, Ethernet configuration. On that Toshiba notebook I have installed Windows '98 and I hate it so I want a Unix/Linux type of system. A friend of mine recommended FreeBSD and I want it. Can you please supply me with a simpler installation guide. I am so worried that I won't make it trough the installation -- or later on I won't gonna be able to load the OS. I want FreeBSD to take the whole disk, so I hope that I won't gonna have to make all those partitions ( Right? ), I hope that FreeBSD will do that for me. Oh, and will FreeBSD fit in a normal 800MB CD? And I'm unsure how to start the Installation process? I need HELP NOW !!!
