Note book Installation
Hello ,Iwas wondering if anyone here had the opportuniity (or misfortune) to try to install Free BSD or unix on a older Notebook.
I have a Toshiba Satellite with a 90 Mhz Pentium and 16 MB ram ,plus 4 GB HDR . No CD drive ,just floppy drive. Would there be a problem using X or EVM on this reduced Memory Laptop, or could I circumvent it by using a Big Swap space on the HDr??? adios ,chilibowl ![]() |

It depends how much X.
![]() You could turn the box into an X terminal and front another server, or you could run a minimal X installation. Ironically I count Motif as lightweight these days, don't attempt Kde or Gnome. Note that Xfree86 and Xorg tend to deprecate older video hardware support, I had an old machine that I had to compile an older version of an X server in order to support it. |
