Hi Adrian.

I’ll probably be able to try this out tomorrow. Would you mind sending those 
instructions over?

Thanks.

Hi Pedro!

You can install Debian unstable on this machine. To use ELILO 3.16, you would 
have to use unstable actually.

I can give you instructions later as I’m currently not at the computer or 
someone else on this list can help you.
