Gave up, I had a p3 1000 on a CUSL-2 board Win 98 to test
cd won't even run when clicked just spins fast, but shows the
ubuntu icon when I boot I get ubuntu 10... and 4 dots flashing
underneath, never installs I tried just about all day today. I
did test the disk it wanted to install on the tusl-2 board but
not on the cusl-2 both have about the same specs.
I thought Linux didn't need much to run on, Win 98 works fine
believe it or not, I use it for playing mps in our rec room and
for checking email and surfing sometimes, at around the same time
(about 10 years ago), I built another p3 with a TUSL-2 board 512 mem
I have XP on that and it works fine as well and is quite fast for
surfing and minor things. its about as fast as my laptop with win7
and a intel i something chip.
I'm surprised I couldn't get Ubuntu to work I have been on servers
with less specs. I'm thinking remove win98 but it might be something
else.
I was hoping to use this for local file sharing website and php
programming.
