As long as you have enough RAM! See http://www.ltsp.org for lots of info on RAM/NetWork SWAP/Firefox's memory usage etc etc. If you just want a no-touch-the-existing and have minimum of 256M ram KNOPPIX works better than the ubuntu-live CDs.
I have 192Mb, which is the maximum it supports. Better yet, steal 512M from the existing disk and set it up as swap. The
linux CDs will work much better.
That's my plan once the machine is configured, though you gave me an idea for the interim live-cd phase. Thanks, --Amos -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html
