I've got Debian Potato (using kernel 2.2.17) running on one of my ancient
66Mhz 486DXs. Runs without any problems whatsoerver. And it only has a 240Mb
disk - and no cd-rom drive. I managed to get it installed over NFS - turned
out to be easy, once I stumbled on the right IO address for the network card
(no plug-and-pray here).
In theory you should only need:
* Rescue Floppy
* Root image floppy
* 2 x driver floppy disk
* Network card (that you know the make/model/IO & IRQ of)
* NFS access to the cd (or 'bout 12 floppies) to get the base
* Internet access to retrieve any other packages you might want, e.g. X,
Perl, you-name-it.
For whatever it's worth

Really?
What happens when LoseDOS suddenly has yet anoter epileptic seizure
and BSOD's, then, after it comes up, it lost the driver for your
printer, and you can't find the install disk?
I'll tell you what... you're COMPLETELY up a creek.
Conversely under Unix, you just edit the config file, and resume
as normal.

I've never seen ANY form of Unix destroy data.

Hes talking about nubus powermacs, as opposed to PCI powermacs...i.e. all 6100s
