In this first entry, we are going to dust off a laptop that appeared back in October 1995 and that originally came with a 486 DX4, 4Mb of RAM and 350Mb of hard drive.

I'm sure Broken Sword would have worked on the two without sound and I think Half Life wouldn't have started even with 16MB because of the screen limitation to 8 bits. And the part about the internet with classical music xdd

How did you install Debian? I have a p2 with the CDROM set up and I want to try it. Do you think there will be any problems because it is compiled for 686?

@gallina Same as TinyCore and the rest of the programs: using the IDE-USB adapter. With TinyCore I'm not sure if the problem was the removal of the Dynamic Drive Ovelay or something else. On Debian it's clear that there is not enough memory. About compiling, i686 is P6 (Pentium Pro). The Pentium 2 is a Pentium Pro with MMX so as long as you have enough memory, you're good.
