TitanMech: I have been trying desparately to find a mirror. Thanks!!

machinebacon: slitaz, puppy, slax all boot. Slitaz and puppy install. However, I am trying to get touchscreen support and both had rather thin repositories, so I was hoping for something with a larger userbase.

I found those torrents. Noone is seeding either one anymore (as you thought, they are entirely inactive). I will probably try another distro rather first rather since I didn't have good success with Ubuntu on this machine.

As sidenote, it is unfortunate that so many distros (#! included) which are lightweight and intended at least in part, for older computers, would drop i486 support entirely given that machines running these processors are still being built (eg: http://www.compactpc.com.tw/ebox-3300.htm).

As I mentionned the i386 version doesn't support i486 processors (the label i386 is a misnomer and should really be changed to i586...).

The problem I'm having is that I can't get anything installed. Even the debian netinstall for recent versions encounter errors during install.

Maybe someone has an older version (i.e. 9?) they could direct me too? All the links I have found to older versions are dead.
