Hello Tom's ppl!
I have this old (and by "old" I mean "OLD") PC with a Pentium I 166 MHz CPU, 32 MB of RAM and - here it comes - one of the fastest 16 MB GPUs in the universe - the Voodoo 3 2k . It has some half-broken Win 2k installation now and takes 20 min to boot. I wanted to know it there are any Windows-like versions of Linux that could be handled by this system?
I've no experience with Linux (apart from using it for browsing and printing a couple of times) but consider myself quite IT-pro-efficient in general. It has a CD-ROM and a Floppy drive, for installation. The CD-ROM works for sure, don't know about the Floppy, though. I tried to install a PCI-USB card as well, but failed for hard to explain reasons.
Thank you for your time!
