I am trying to install slax onto my friends older computer but I can find the install routine in the live cd. After checking their site it said that it was supposed look in the /home folder, but theres nothing there. Can i install from the command line?

I'm pretty sure slax isn't designed to be hard drive installed... I'd try vector linux or zenwalk.

Thanks you were right. I didnt take the time to look into it further, I just knew that it was a lightweight distro. Other than zenwalk and vector. What would you guys recommend as the lightest distros to run on a 8 gig hard drive with 512 ram and i think a Pentium 2 or 3.
