[NMLUG] Re: Ubuntu Anyone?
Yep, that's pretty much where I circled back around to. The main reason
I had gone looking for a different distro was because, in the past, a
minimal windows (no KDE or GNOME) installs resulted in having to get
packages scattered across 3 CDs. I was just now pleasantly surprised to
see that 9.2 will do that install all off of CD1. Very nice.
The machine I'm looking at setting up is the pseudo-thin client I talked
about in another post. These are PII 300-400MHz machines, with older CD
drives.
