It said, "installing programs" (or something like that) then it aid it failed and I can skip it if it keeps failing.

It looks like you people don't know what's gong on at all, so I might try...

Oh how I hate linux code; you have to read a 1,000 page book+ to know how to do the simplest of things. -_-
Anyway, It failed, I tried twice, so I went on to installing grub. It seems to be...

I have a Dell Inspiron 1100 and it's not not connecting on the latest version of Puppy through an ethernet connection.

I haven't tried soad.
But it looks like there's only i686. That's not what I want, is it? for 32 bit?

Yes. :)




Error: No configuration file found

I've tried most of them and they either don't work, or something about it bugs me. And BL is really, really small. :)
Perfect for my IBM thinkpad 600.

It just doesn't have a floppy drive. D:

I really have no clue. Someone referred me once on how to convert the floppy files to iso, maybe google that? :/

Thank you both. :)

But, I burnt it to a CD and and it said it was missing the boot- something, and then vista started.

Okay, I took a HD out for my old win 98 computer that is dead. I was going to put basic linux on it, but the floppy didn't boot, so win 98 started. Which I didn't think was possible. So I thought I'd...

Convert the floppy disk files into an ISO image?

For basic linux. here.

I've tried doing it myself (with help) and I don't get it. So I'm wondering if someone on here would be so kind as to do...

I know. I have several computers I've acquired.
But I wanted to give this old laptop to my cousin so she can do basic web browsing and such.

That page will give you the specifications. (=

Oh. Well either way, a graphical OS is something I need. :)

I am looking for a very small linux distro that will support flash and what not. I only have 64 MB RAM, I think. (it may have been upgraded, but not sure)

I've tried Luit, and the new version of...

Do I need to? I'm trying to get Basic Linux onto my old laptop. And it has no floppy drives.

<li>BL 3.50 image for QEMU users

I downloaded the qemu file,...

It doesn't connect with ethernet or USB automatically..

It just says "can't solve www.google.com!".. (or any address I enter in dillo)

Oh darn. I have one blank disk. :/

Yeah, I know. But they made it sound like they were making the newer one all fancy and this is a very old machine. Speed/functionality before eyecandy. ;)

And...

Specifically for connochaet OS. (or deli linux, which should I get?)

This will be for a IBM thinkpad 600. How do I change the BIOS settings for this laptop?

I upgraded from 96 MB to 256 MB and I'm not seeing an increase in speed. I'm using Debian. Thanks.

Ok, I got flash think, now I just have to do this:

~/Desktop# tar -xvf install_flash*.tar.gz


~$ mkdir ./.mozilla/plugins

Copy generated libflashplatyer.so into ~/.mozilla/plugins.

I try, but a lot of times I get results for a specific distro, and it doesn't work for mine..

Anyways, about my source.list... This is what I got in leafpad:

# deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux...

Yeah, but How do I learn all this terminal mumbo-jumbo? And everything else? I try to google what I need first, but don't usually turn up what I need or it doesn't work.

As for people that may...

Oh, well how do I get to my documents all all that?

And how do I change my /etc/apt/sources.list?


I'm trying to add this.
