--- Quote from: Pathos ---Damn Small Linux is great to learn with and with very low system requirements, it runs on the P1 100mhz 22mb ram machine next to me.

It can also be installed without a cdrom.

22mb??? Isn't that under the kernel requirements? I guess you tweaked the kernel somehow. Very impressive.

Aloone_Jonez:
DeLi Linux is also very small, I don't know about kernel requirements be the 2.4 kernel would fit on a floppy.

Um...the kernel only uses around 6MB.

H_TeXMeX_H:
And DSL uses the older 2.4.x kernel which is way smaller than the newer 2.6.x kernel.

Just go there and try the live CD ... if you can handle it and like it then install it (do note that things are considerably slower when booting from CD than from HDD)

DarkTan:
Thanks for al the info, looks like i'll go with DSL.
