Distro Suggestions for P2 Laptop
Here are the limitations of my system. Its Pentium 2 with only 32 mb of Ram. It runs at 333 mhz with a formatted 8 gb harddrive. I need something that installs easily and can get on the internet with a wireless nic. Any and all suggestions appreciated.

Try Vector Linux.

Regardless of which distro you decide upon, if your budget can afford it, installing more RAM would make a huge difference. Of course, whether or not it would be worthwhile upgrading an older laptop is another consideration, but assuming that you will be using it frequently, it could be a good call. Good luck with it -- J.W.

Yeah dude, more ram would make your computing experience much mcuh better, 256mb of ram is real cheap now.
But if you dont feel like upgrading ur comp than I would suggest vector or slack. Also to make your comp run smoother and quicker I would stay away from GUI's like Gnome and KDE. I would go with Fluxbox. Gnome and KDE would overload your laptop. |
