Interesting. I have a Sony Vaio P sub-netbook that only has a 32-bit CPU. I tried: • MX Linux (worked, has what I consider bloat and wasn't as customisable as I would like) • Crunchbang++ (very small text, not as lightweight as original CrunchBang: ±210-200MB RAM in use) • Raspberry Pi Desktop x86 (very customisable, full desktop, and used less RAM than CB++ (±205MB) I also saw that Mageia still supports x86-32 but it is not mentioned as a lightweight distro. > https://www.slitaz.org/en/ Worth knowing -- thanks. I haven't looked at Slitaz in a decade. I will bear it in mind. -- Liam Proven – Profile: https://about.me/liamproven Email: lpro...@cix.co.uk – gMail/gTalk/gHangouts: lpro...@gmail.com Twitter/Facebook/LinkedIn/Flickr: lproven – Skype: liamproven UK: +44 7939-087884 – ČR (+ WhatsApp/Telegram/Signal): +420 702 829 053 _______________________________________________ Freedos-user mailing list Freedos-user@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freedos-user
