Hey guys,
I was in study hall the other day and I decided to hop onto a PC. I was aimlessy browsing the web when I thought about putting an old linux distro on my pentium 133. I looked up slackware and downloaded slackware 4.0. There's even a dos emulator for it so I can run my old PC games (well, most of them, not windows games though) which is ok with me. I looked at some images on google of slackware 4.0 and it looks cooler than windows 9x IMHO. so I'm installing slackware right now on my pentium. I have a k6-2 I'll use for my windows games but I'm going linux on this one. So has anyone else had any luck installing old linux distros on their old computers? I'm somewhat new to linux, I've used linux before but not to the point where I can use the terminal fluently. Thanks for reading, -A
