Is there a way to install Linux over a network on such an old machine. It currently has windows 3.1 and DOS running. And has one 60 mb hard drive and one 120 mb hard drive. I have found a small easy to install minix 386 that goes over DOS so I may just use that to start off, in order to install a very old linux kernel .01 or .02 Tristan
