Operating Systems Linux Installation of Linux in 300 MHz with 128 MB ram Post 302173997 by Perderabo on Sunday 9th of March 2008 01:36:35 PM

A dual install is nice but there is a chance you will damage your windows os if you make an error. But if you switch hard drives, that should be very safe and it gives you a way to try out Fedora first. So I suggest that switch to your second hard drive install Fedora or another Linux there and after you get some experience with that you can decide whether or not to try the dual boot. I would expect Fedora to run OK on your system. Actually my suggestion is a minimum of 256 MB for Windows/XP so I'm surprised to hear that you're running XP with only 128MB.

NAME
cpupower frequency-set - A small tool which allows to modify cpufreq settings. SYNTAX
cpupower [ -c cpu ] frequency-set [options] DESCRIPTION
cpupower frequency-set allows you to modify cpufreq settings without having to type e.g. "/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scal- ing_set_speed" all the time. OPTIONS
-d --min <FREQ> new minimum CPU frequency the governor may select. -u --max <FREQ> new maximum CPU frequency the governor may select. -g --governor <GOV> new cpufreq governor. -f --freq <FREQ> specific frequency to be set. Requires userspace governor to be available and loaded. -r --related modify all hardware-related CPUs at the same time REMARKS By default values are applied on all cores. How to modify single core configurations is described in the cpupower(1) manpage in the --cpu option section. The -f FREQ, --freq FREQ parameter cannot be combined with any other parameter. FREQuencies can be passed in Hz, kHz (default), MHz, GHz, or THz by postfixing the value with the wanted unit name, without any space (fre- quency in kHz =^ Hz * 0.001 =^ MHz * 1000 =^ GHz * 1000000). On Linux kernels up to 2.6.29, the -r or --related parameter is ignored. FILES
