[K12OSN] Re: K12OSN Digest, Vol 68, Issue 10 Subject: using really old PCs as clients

[Alok Mahendroo]

Hi Raju,

No problems at all..:) As an experiment I had installed LTSP on FC11 and
used a Pentium II as the client of course with a network card boot rom.
No problems with the client ... The configuration is PII, 128 MB RAM and
even a monitor from a discarded X386 (worked with a graphics card) for
the client and the server is also an old Athlon 2000+ with 512 mb
RAM....
