I recently got an old 386 with 4M ram and decided to put Linux on it. The
HD it came with was only 80M which was too small, so I tried a 1G drive and
set the CMOS type (it has no auto or user entries ) to type 60 which would
give me 220M. Strangely the Suse 5.3 boot disk sees it as a 1G drive and so
far has had no problems using it's full capacity.
The problem I have now is that it is extremely slow, which I expected - but
I was wondering if anybody had any suggestions of changes I can make to
speed it up (apart from upgrade the HW). I installed Suse via NFS 2 days
ago and so far it is as par as yast finishing up with 'setting up Perl'. I
intend to modularise the kernel to minimise memory it uses and stop
http/squid e.t.c running.
Would it be better to use Suse 5.2 instead of 5.3?? is it smaller?
