    Try using an older version of it.. Newer distrobutions are for more advanced computers, not older ones.

    And wrong forum... Heh.

    possibly try an older version. Mandrake may be a bit better for you or perhaps try slackware (harder to use) or Debian 3.0

    Use a floppy that will then boot from the CD? Set the device to 1st in the BIOS boot priority?

    I would recomend you try somthing like Slackware or FreeBSD these make great servers and are extremely scaleable. I run FreeBSD and it does a great job.
