I still have a redhat 9 machine with a 333Mhz pentium3 cpu, 5 1/4 floppy, 3 1/2 floppy, Yamaha scsi CD burner an adpatec 2940, and a Promise Ultra100 TX2 PCI IDE Controller for strage old IDE disks. It also has a soundblaster with the wavetable addition for that old-time midi goodness.
It connects via a 100mbs 3com 3C905BTX nic. I call it the network attached device driver.
- grapeli23 7y agoJust 2 and a half years ago I was running the kernel 4.10 on such equipment - AMD K6-2 300MHz, 3DFx Banshee (AGP2x), Trident 9440 (PCI), television card bt878, sound card Maestro, SoundBlaster Creative. Everything worked. I am sure that it would also move under the latest 5.3-rc2. A bigger problem is with the right (ready) userland (i486, i586) than using old hardware with the latest kernel.
