Apologies - badly phrased.
I should have said, it's not a newbie-help-list.

But this newbie will ask for help regardless:
(If you say RTFM, tell me where the F manual is)
I've got a laptop with a Celeron 500mhz chip: does this mean I should 
get a distro optimised for a 386 or what?
I've googled, but found nowt.
I think this might be the reason why neither Mandrake 9 nor Red Hat 8 
is working on my box.

(Thanks for the replies to my last post - I've come to the above 
conclusion on the basis of the links you gave me.)

And one other question: is anyone on this list using linux on a mac? 
I'm having trouble finding decent information about that. Main question 
is whether Linux-from-scratch will work on a G3 iMac.

Thanks everybody,

John
