Hi Peter
I doubt very much if the BDI will run on a 486 - The kernel has been optimised
for a Pentium class processor.
Even if linux does run, I suspect the performance will be so poor that you will
be dissapointed.
Jon - The BDI is based on RH 6.x. There were too many problems being reported
with RH 7.x to justify using it.
Regards, Paul.

The BDI is based on a 7.1 Red Hat distribution, I think.
