> In my experience, the biggest problem with Fedora on low-memory systems is > getting it installed. The RULE Project (Run Up2date Linux Everywhere) has an installer "slinky" http://www.fzk.at/SLINKY/ that can install Fedora Core 5 in 32MB RAM. I did it in 64MB on a PentiumMMX-166 in about 3.5 hours. Starting OpenOffice took two minutes, but typing and mousing was fine. On a network, then a "reverse NFS install" can be used. Boot the target machine using a rescue CD or DVD, partition+format+mount the disk, start NFS and export the target root filesystem. From another machine on the network, run rpm using "--dbpath DIRECTORY" and "--root DIRECTORY" to re-direct those places to the target machine. You might also need to use --ignorearch. After installing kernel, glibc, grub, and yum (use "--aid" to fill in the dependencies), then you'll have enough to boot the target machine by itself, and finish installation using yum and system-config-*. -- -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
