That said, the predecessor to Fedora was Red Hat Linux. Version 7.3 was excellent for it's day, and I believe it would run on a 486. Red Hat split into what we know as Fedora and RHEL after Red Hat v9. Though v8 and 9 marked their switch to Gnome (from Enlightenment) and, iirc, had much heavier footprints. -- Digimer E-Mail: digimer@xxxxxxxxxxx AN!Whitepapers: http://alteeve.com Node Assassin: http://nodeassassin.org -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
