Re: compact distributions for old equipment

I don't myself know, but Rob's original posting talked about using the VGA16
server, which is 16 colors ( = 4 bpp, for the less technical members of the
list). But as I said in an earlier message, the memory difference between
the VGA16 and SVGA (8 bpp, = 256 colors) servers is quite small - only
around 100k. The real question is whether these oldies have SVGA video at all.
