OK, sorry for such a vaque question...
I am running Windows NT Workstation on a machine at home. I have a box with a Cyrix233 on which I would like to install Linux/Oracle.
Basically, I want a relatively easy setup so I can use the Oracle server as quickly as possible. But, I want to use Linux (rather than NT) so as time goes by I'll start to learn more about Linux.
Anyways, can somebody provide some suggestions for a Linux dist which will 'easily' support a Cyrix233, Oracle 8.0.5 and also has pretty wide support for network cards.
Finally, will mapping a drive between the Linux and NT box be relatively easy?
I had planning on just buying Redhat, but if a different distribution may work better, then by all means.
