Okay, okay, got two m0n0 boxes running on old gear, a P90 w/80mb ram and a 486 DX2 50mhz ... yes, you read it right, 486 with 32mb ram, and a whopping 500mb hdd (takes forever to boot, but works beautifully when running)... (not to mention the two Soekris 486 class boxes but I guess they don't really count since m0n0 was developed for them) ... Been wondering about compiling source to run on the old 8086 in the corner ... if I could just find some nics for it <grin>...
