Without having read the other replies to your question I'll say that RedHat 7.2 is a good solution. I installed RH on a similar Machine P200, 64 megs of mem, but I had a total of 4 gigs of space on 2 hard-drives. A 'workstation' install takes 1.6 gigabytes, more or less, but you can cut it down to less than 1 gig depending on what you want and/or need. -- Samir M. Nassar RedConcepts.NET
