- Hi, I have a 486sx20 (20MHz) with 105 MB running DOS 5. I am seriously
- considering buying another (removable) hard disk to install Linux or any other
- workable UNIX os (no partitions, I would use the whole HD). My question(s) are
-
- 1. How much disk space will be used by LINUX? I need at least
- - C compiler
- - vi
- - awk
- - sed
- - capability to add more users (hook up PCs)
- - the source files of awk if possible.
- - anything else in the basic package (but everything is considered)
-
- 2. How much RAM is suggested? I got 4MB.
- 3. Where do I get a complete system? how many disks?
-
- Please send responses to my EMAIL address:
- grimaldo@tokyo.sce.philips.nl
-
- Thanks in advance, Emilio
