Re: [newbie] Installing Linux under Windows 3.1

Try an earlier version of Mandrake, such as 6.1, that is what I use in
my 486 dx 2 66 MHz. I think 7.0 is compiled for pentium procesors.

 You need a Pentium for Mandrake. Try some other distro, RedHat works fairly
 well on a 486, so does TurboLinux.

Try a distro configures for i386.  Mandrake kernels are complied to maximize
Pentium or better.
