Hi Debian Friends, this is just to report a successful Debian installation on a low memory system. I am successfully running the Debian base package, PPP networking and X11 base packages downloaded from the latest distribution. The kernel have been compiled by myself configuring as many modules as possible. It it running on my old-fashioned notebook AcerNote 730i with a monochrom display, 4 MB main memory and 60 MB partition for LINUX.
Without starting daemons the kernel boots as fast as DOS. Running PPP on the serial interface connected by a nullmodem to another LINUX box works as well as connecting to my internet provider. Xserver runs as well locally as remotely, mounting devices via NFS, telnet, ftp, ... works fine. My thanks to the developer of this great distribution Gerhard Tonn PS: This is the third distribution I have tried. -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
