Ok, thx Jim, in that case I am going to look for another obsolete machine. -----Oorspronkelijk bericht----- Van: psyche-list-admin@redhat.com [mailto:psyche-list-admin@redhat.com] Namens Jim Webb Verzonden: woensdag 8 januari 2003 3:51 Aan: Psyche Onderwerp: Re: rawrite Gerard, You will need 64 MB RAM to install in text mode and 128 MB to install in GUI mode for RH 8.0. And I seriously doubt that your box would run RH 8 with a GUI desktop such as KDE or Gnome. I tried to install on a 200 MHz Pentium box with either 48 or 64 MB and it ran slower then molasses in winter.
