The problem: I want to install on a K6/2. The newest installation kernel that
doesn't require cmov that K6/2 doesn't have is Wheezy. When I boot the Wheezy
installation kernel and initrd from Grub, selection of installation source omits
archive.debian.org as a selection, which is apparently the only place Wheezy can
be found any more. Is there a country that can be selected where
archive.debian.org will be selectable? USA, UK & Germany don't seem to offer it.


If I wanted to get a Unix-like operating system working on old x86 hardware, I would try FreeBSD or NetBSD:
