I am considering using Linux on my system. At present I am using DOS6.
My spec is as follows.
486/66 VLBus
8MB Ram
ET4000 Local Bus display
15" Multisync
Can I buy a second harddrive and install Linux onto it as D:. Once both C:(dos) and
D:(Linux) are present in the CMOS, can I select on bootup which to use. If this is
possible, how do I do it?
I am downloading Linux 1.03 at present onto 30 HD disks, is there anything else I should get for the system as well.
Could someone please give me a general landmark for Linux on the above spec, compared to a Sun Sparc II or equivelent.
ANy other information that you might have on Linux, software, development, special
features, etc etc please let me know.
Thanks Paul (PAZ)
