Anyone know of any tips sharing Win98 & Linux on an old laptop?
I'd like to keep windows and have it multi-boot so I can choose either Linux or Windows.
How much space would I need to run Linux, since I only have limited space? I might be able to free up a few gigs but not sure, so I'd probably want a light linux thats fully functional but I don't necessarily need a fully decked GUI, unless I can fit it in.
Any recommended distros that are easy to install and aren't bloated as in unnecessary features.
The only other issue I see is that the laptop is a Japanese model with Windows 98, so I can pratice my Japanese on it. I'd guess though, this shouldn't be a problem.
Main reason I want linux is that while traveling I can further develop my programming skills, use a light OS so I can do some web development, and networking stuff and maybe play some Linux nethack and so on. =)
