Re: Mandrake 10.1 system requirements
I've not installed MDK lately, but unless you can install it without pretty much everything, it won't work. For that type of system, you'd be better off using either slack, a *BSD, DSL (Damn Small Linux), or even Debian. All of these have small base install footprints, allowing you to add what you need.
