A friend gave me a laptop with a Pentium 100 and 24 megs of ram. It only has a floppy drive. What version of FreeBSD do you recommend and would you send me the link to download it.
It's possible to run FreeBSD on a machine like that (in fact, I intend to start doing so on a very similar machine today), but only as a diskless workstation. FreeBSD needs a disk *somewhere*. If this is all you have, you can't run FreeBSD on it.
