Linux Distros..


Dear LQ Readers,

I am planning on setting up a basic webserver, which I can use to HOST a baisic website and a BBS off of.

Which Linux Distro would run best on a

Pentium 200MHZ, w/ 64mb RAM?

If it will be a problem, I may run the BBS on another Pentium 166mhz and operate the webserver on the Pentium 200.

Any recomendations?

Just apache is all i'll need on the webserver

Any distro will do ---- as long as you don't install everything on the cdrom. I'm doing more or less what you want using SuSE and also with Debian. Good luck.
