I was browing the net... and I found this. I have been looking for linux that I could get on a 386 using just the 1.44 disk and this is it I guess. Great Job

Keep up this great work! ...I have a 486, 4M laptop at work that will not take any additional ram - I've felt is pretty much obsolete. Now, with Small Linux it will be like a new computer and much better than when I originally bought it! Thanks again, Jim

A few days ago I found a 486/4meg/no flopy drive computer in the garbage. (Hey, if it's beside a dumpster, its MINE.) I put a friends spare flopy in it, used Ma's computer to download and rawrite the images, and fired her up. Now I have my own mediocre, but linux none the less computer. Not only that, now I can take linux with me were ever I go! (If I turn off my new toy first, anyway.) Anyway, kickass job! I wish I were as good a coder as you!

Downloaded and installed 0.7.1 Small Linux last night, great fun and works really nicely on my old laptop (which is practically a mainframe compared to others here, P100 with 8MB). Now to get it networking using plip.

Hi, I tested it on a IBM Laptop L40SX with only 2 MB; well, it works a bit slow at the beginning. So I "make" a new kernel-2.0.0 (your new update won't work :-((). The performance is better then before...

Thanks. I don't have everything up and running yet, but small linux seems to be working for me to get linux on my old (formely useless) laptop. Not sure why mulinux and tomsrtbt didn't boot, but smalllinux seems fine. I am used to using all of the automated tools in the standard redhat distro, it is sort of fun to be installing linux bit by bit from floppies. :^)

I once used a two disk mini-linux to train field engineers on the Unix environment using discarded 386 and 486 sx machines. Their management did not want them practicing on live TDMA cell phone switches, for some reason. I am looking to find something for my TI 4000 noebook, now. Regards, Mike

I would like to that i think it is amazing what you are doing with this distribution. i used your linux distro as a base for installation of slackware 3.6 onto a 386 with 4 megs of ram and a 60 meg harddrive. (old ibm) I have been working towards this goal for over 3 days straight and yesterday i had a breakthrough when i found your distribution. I used the floppies to install and transfer over 15 megs of files back and forth from the server to the 386. I think what you have done is excellent and i would like to say thank you for the base for a whole operating system. email me and i'll give you an ip for the computer so that, if you want to, can log into the box and see what it's done..

Thanks for the site. Currently I'm in education (but moving back to the "real"? world shortly) smallinux sounds like fun - and incidentally being small might be useful for student embedded systems/robotics projects. Any links? More power to your elbow, Pete

I am in search of an operating system for my Compaq LTE 386s/20 system with only 2MB of RAM and a 60MB hard drive. I hope that SmallLinux is the solution to my desires. I do like Linux, and I will report on my experience with this distribution. Thanks for making it.

It actually works. Booted an old AST 386SX-20 laptop with only 2 meg of ram. Unfortunately, my lack of deep install/files of linux have prevented me from moving it to the whopping 60 meg hd... :) I'm still at it, however.
