I have an old computer and I'm wondering what I can put in it. I tried several versions of Linux, Minix, Minix-VMD. I have 8Mo RAM, and two hard disks: 240Mo + 204Mo + 486processor For a poetical reason, I think of putting Plan9 in it... (why? well, because I like sam the editor...) Do you think it's a good idea ? I downloaded the install floppy, and it didn't work! I don't remember why, but if you think it should work, I can try again. I also have a CD-ROM (is there a way of getting the CD distribution ?) Is there a way of putting a small part of Plan 9 (like I can do with Linux: I only use three tools: groff, ghostview, and an editor). I don't know anything else about Plan9 (except that I really like SAM :-) -- .~. Thomas Baruchel /V\ baruchel@libertysurf.fr // \\ Brest /( )\ FRANCE ^`~'^
