What operating system would run best on an ancient notebook? Can Linux save me?
I was recently given a 10 year old IBM ThinkPad. It has a 4GB hard drive and 64 somethings of RAM. (not sure of the unit of measurement there).
I managed to figure out how to hook it up to the internet, however, since most web pages are much more intense than they were 10 years ago, the notebook runs mighty slow on its Windows 98 platform.
My question is this... can this super slow speed be resolved by installing a different, much leaner operating system? I'm trying to learn about linux - do they offer something bare-bones-ish? Anyone?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
"You might want to try Xubuntu, it's meant for lightweight systems. They say it can run with 64 MB ram once installed, but you will have to opt for the alternate installation CD, because the LiveCD needs 128MB of RAM." this is a quote from Linux Forums. Here is another:
"Vector Linux, Zenwalk and FreeBSD are all modern OSs that don't require modern pcs to run them well.
I also rec them because they use old fashioned text installers instead of extremely resource hungry live cds.
If you end up wanting to try the zippy Xubuntu, I would rec you downloading the alternative cd, it is a text installer instead of a live cd.
In terms of live cds DSL and Puppy might be the only ones you can run."
I'm using Debian on an older desktop and it can be slow but it works.
