Hey Guys,
Just hoping to get a bit of a helping hand with a server set up of Red Hat Linux 7.3. Ive set it up on an older Pentium I machine in the hope of bringing it back from the grave, and the installation appears to go fine, however upon booting, KDE or GNOME fails to run, citing memory problems (not enough) as being the cause. The machine also doesnt have a graphics card...and this may be the obvious cause of the problems.
 
Can someone point me in the right direction on this. Does RH 7.3 require more RAM in order to run, a graphics card perhaps? I have the shell running fine, but it's X that appears to be struggling with the current hardware. What other options are available for aged and lesser quality hardware? All i really need is a box that will act a firewall between my win2k network and the internet.
 
thanks in advance
 
Rod.
