    I have an ANCIENT Dell Latitude CP with I believe 128Meg of RAM. Currently it has Win98 on it, and I was thinking of turning it into a Linux box. Problem is it doesn't have CMOV so I'm having a hard time finding Linux distros that will install...so my multipart question becomes...

    1) Will D20Pro even run on this thing if I move away from Win98
    2) Can anyone suggest a Linux version that will actually install on this, and then
    2B) Will D20Pro run on that version of Linux acceptably well?

    Thanks,
    JT

    You might want to look into Puppy Linux. Its designed to install small and be built up from there. An older distro of Ubuntu might work as well.
