Any way I can build a low memory install disk?
Hey All,
Thanks for all your great advice. I played with trying to run just
Linux on the machine, but depending on which flavor of Debian I used

I have a couple of compaq armadas that had the
original bios partition. In fact, the dignostic
partition is not needed at all. I totally formatted
the HDD to remove it and then installed Linux. No
problems. I have a second HDD which I also formatted
and then installed windows followed by Linux.

Hi folks, I'm finally thinking about getting a laptop, and I thought
I'd ask your opinion...
For no real motive other than the fact that they came to my attention

Hello, I just bought a used Gateway Solo5300 laptop and want to install
Debain for my work. However, this laptop comes with minimum
documentation. What I know is it's PIII600, 96mb RAM and 6GB HD. The
screen is 12" and 800x600. Anyone has similar setup and with successful
Debian installation?
