Installing Linux Like It's 1999
https://www.pcbway.com - PCB fabrication, assembly, 3D printing, CNC machining & more! Red Hat Linux 6.1 was released in October 1999, 25 years ago this month! So let's install it out on period...
What has your experience with Linux been like so far? How long has been your Linux journey? Mine began while I was studying computer science, and I've been in love with Linux since.
You're viewing a single thread.
RH 6.1 is EOL thus should not be used. I would recommend Debian 12

This is RedHat Linux 6.1, it was EOL way before RedHat Enterprise Linux 6 came around
I remember I made a thread asking for advice running an older version of Linux for funsies and to experience it and unironically someone said something along those lines to me, like "uhm Linux isn't windows you can use modern packages and new distros support older hardware" like ughh
There is truth to it. You can make any modern Linux work like the older versions
That's true, and you can make Windows XP look like '98, but is it really what retro enthusiasts would want?
