Of course, that means the Celeron is running i486 Debian. [...]

I heard there were Puppy remixes for kids. Maybe they can fit.

A friend of mine is trying to setup an old Pentium II for his little daughter to start knowing internet. So a basic distro with a graphic environment with a browser and a mail is far enough.
Any recommendations here?

I’m a bit hardcore and suggested him debian lenny cli only…he got a bit angry about that but I told him this way his daughter at age of 15 (she’s 6 now) is going to be a great hacker :-) )

thanks a lot,
your blog is very inspirational to me
Gemon

Not ConnochaetOS just because I haven’t spent much time with Debian lately. And although it does sound smarmy, I do like to spend a little time with everything. It’s healthy.

Last time I used Squeeze on machines this old I had boot problems. And the time it takes to make the update can be very frustrating, if it just ends in problems. ;)
