I run debian on a pentiium 66 mhz with 32ram. it is a great distro and very simple to install, I installed it over ftp and its simple. it again, as I stress, if you don't truely understand the technical aspect of it, takes allot of reading. for example, I'm having a hell of a time installing fedora, but i read, and read and read and keep trouble shoting. I just don't think ty understands how boot up works in general, hint, why he doesn't understand why he is getting an error msg ffrom the bios advising him that there is no os to boot on his hdd and he should either boot up off a cd, floppy or some other bootable device.
