Granted I would not use it as a graphics workstation, or run KDE/GNOME on it, but it could do well as home file server, maybe a low volume web server (you may need to add more ram though) -----Original Message----- From: owner-freebsd-newbies@freebsd.org [mailto:owner-freebsd-newbies@freebsd.org] On Behalf of P Stalidis Sent: Friday, October 22, 2004 8:15 AM To: freebsd-newbies@freebsd.org Subject: Searching Hello to everybody, from Greece. I'm not sure if this is the right place to send this e-mail, but I'm sending it anyhow :) I've got an old PC, (i386sx33, 1MB ram, 200MB HD) and I want to run freeBSD on it. It is obvious that newer versions won't run, so I'm looking for one of the earlier versions like 1.0 .... If anyone still has something please send it over or redirect me to someplace else. Thanks in advance :) _______________________________________________ freebsd-newbies@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-newbies To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-newbies-unsubscribe@freebsd.org"
