Hi I'm a complete n00b at linux, never used it before. I have a laptop P166 40 megs of RAM and I would like to try linux for school. I just want to use it for maybe school work internet (firefox) and just learning the ins and outs of linux. Can anyone recomend a distro that would probably run on this system and maybe acomplish all this. I tried looking at the beginner distro guide but he installed it on a XP2500 and I'm no where close to that so I was wondering about my hardware.
Problem: Ok I tried gentoo knoppix and fedora and I keep getting this problem where it gives me a buncha gobildy gook and then it finally says I can't even get to anyplace where I can even try to install anything.
code: 8b 46 0c 8d 48 6c f0 ff48 6c 0f 88 e3 00 00 00 ff 74 24 10
<0>Kernal panic: Attempted to kill init!
