I don't mind text only installs, it's just things like BSD that I find
*extremely* frustrating (not to say competely impenetrable) and I infer
from the general enthusiasm over Debian that it's installer is more
"occassionally challenging" rather than "what psychotic nutter thought up
this mental-assault-course-thinly-disguised-as-an-installer".
Can Debian cope with only 64Mb RAM in this scenario though? I *could* get a
128Mb EDO buffered stick from Kingston, but paying £70+ for outdated RAM
seems perverse, to say nothing of the fact that there are several other
things I'd happily spend that on.
Thus far, then- Debian.
Any nay-sayers?
Thanks for all the advice thus far!
