Has anybody succesfully run SuSe 9.2 on an old PC? It's not for me
but somebody asked me if it were possible? They have tried using a
PC running 196mb of RAM together with a 166 Pentium MMX chip. The PC
hangs so far into the install and goes no further. I'm pretty sure
9.2 ought to run on a 166 but maybe not. Or could it be something
else preventing it? I've got an old PC with a 166 MMX myself and had
thought of running SuSE on this. Perhaps it's not a good idea? This
chap has run other distros succesfully on this particular PC by the
way so it's not the Machinery that's actually broken....perhaps not
quite up to the job.
