Taking a look at running Linux on a 1999 Pentium 3 computer. Unfortunately this wasn’t a complete success with Tiny Core Linux, as the computer has no Ethernet port and Tiny Core failed to recognise the only USB WiFi dongle I own. Although I was able to get a working GUI desktop.
I will have to revisit this again when I have either obtained a PCI network card or tried a larger Linux distro with more WiFi drivers included.
