Hello everyone,
Can someone recommend an easy to use, home version of Linux that can be housed on a 1.9GB harddrive, 252MB memory, and 512 MHz? I've looked at Fedora and I don't think I have the resources for it.
As always, thanks.
Anna

I have installed Slackware v9.1 with Xwindows on a Pentium 200 MHz, with 64 Megabytes of RAM and a 2 gigabyte hard drive. If you choose a window manager other than KDE or Gnome, it will fit and run. With your 252 MB of RAM, X will be just fine. Suse 9.x should work well also.
Have you considered an older release? Red Hat 7.3, Suse 7.x, Slackware 7.x would be fine. If your processor is less than a Pentium, try Slackware as 9.x will run on a 80486 and Slackware 7.x runs on a 80386. You can always compile the kernel for your own level of processor.
HTH, Chuck
