Is there a collection of Linux virtual machine images I could use to run old browsers (say from 1994)? There's https://infinitemac.org/ https://infinitemac.org/ for MacOS and Windows 3/95/98 VMs, but I've had a hard time getting Linux binaries from the early 90s working.
- genewitch 3y agoyou gave me flashbacks of trying to get random software i heard about to compile for redhat and debian linux back in the very late 90s or early 2000s. I reckon, if ordered to, i could probably get a system with source available to run decades-old software. As it stands my oldest working OS is Ubuntu 6.04. If you know of an archive of freshmeat or whatever, it might be possible to get something like this working in about a week of tinkering. oh dependency hell, what a time we had together edit: my oldest on the metal OS. VMs i didn't count.
