Hi Luggers,
I heard sometime back that gnu/linux works on 386 machines. I have a 386machine 8mb ram 250 mb hdd sn200 16 bit lan card cgp display card trl (monochrome) monitor
Will gnu/linux work on trl monitor. I have RHL 5.0 (from PCQ).
The command line console will work.
How do i
configure the display card and the lan card. will i be able to load any GUI on it. I am willing to put in a 630mb or 1.2 gb hdd to make a complete install.
You will probably not be able to run X, unless you have a MGA or dual frequency monitor, since IIRC X supports MGA and Hercules modes (720x350 mono).
As for the network card, it will most probably be a NE 1000 compatible. If you can post the markings on the main chips, maybe we can figure out what kind of driver we require.
Rgds,
Krishnan
