Hi all
 Well after playing with knoppix for kids and looking around found a menu 
with tenimal server so i decided to have a go
you can set this up from knoopix very easy - once you have a boot disc for 
your ternimal works ok from the cd.

I now have this setup off a hard drive and can boot most of my computers 
from it- this works much better than from cd.
results slow computer - allways slow - fast processor and heaps of ram - 
very impressive 
will have this running for our meeting so all can play and see.

setup
server amd xp1800 with 512 megs ram 4.5g ata drive

the ternimals that i have working ( all run kde )
pentium 133 with 160 megs ram this works but slow
pentuim 233mmx - 128 megs of ram really min spec machine
pentium pro 200 with 64 megs ram
xp 1800 512 megs ram 

if any one wants to try a machine you only need to bring the box with a 
network card - we can dowload and make a floppy (be helpful if you know 
chipset of card /driver etc)

so see you all wensday i hope

ps this knoppix distro is rock solid i have had it running from friday night 
have played games with abigail all weekend and it has not even looked 
like crashing - and all of the apps work !!!
Regards
Phil Workman
