[plug] P75 & Linux

[James Elliott]

Thank you all for your helpful comments and advice about running Debian on
an old P75 computer

I forgot to mention that the P75 computer has 24 Mb RAM which is an
important consideration, and limitation.  Being the old EDO style of RAM it
is hard to come by or to increase the amount.

I take the point that I could dual boot my main computer with Red Had and
Debian, but one of the reasons I would like to use the old P75 is to get
experience in networking Linux, and since it seems that I can't fit Xwindows
on the P75's 1 Gb HDD it will be fun to try and run the xserver on my main
machine (Red Hat 7.3) from the console on the P75 (Debian).  As Sacha said:
"learning by doing".

Once again, many thanks to you all
