The Compaq Presario R3000 does not have the necessary RAM to run even a minimal install of Centos 7. However, there are other distributions with less requirements that might still work with that machine.
Thanks for the answer. Is there any way to add some kind of external RAM to the Presario Notebook, so it will work with the newest CentOS? It would be the best to learn on the newest software, and also get it to work, for cheap (router that I want to get is around $15, like I already mentioned, I dont want to spend too much money on that).
Edit:
It looks like I can buy new RAM part (better) and replace it in the notebook. Questions here would be, how much RAM do I need, in order for everything to work (I would not want to pay more, than I need to), and would there be anything else, that is needed, for the notebook part (as far as what I am trying to do)?
Edit2:
"The installer needs at least 406MB of memory to work. On systems with less memory then 406MB the installation will terminate with a fatal error. 512MB is the minimum memory requirement for CentOS-7."
I may be installing other distros like Ubuntu or Debian too. Will it be ok to get something like 512MB, or would I go for something around 700MB, or 1GB (again, I want to save as much money as possible, even though the price should not be much different with this).
Thanks.
