zfire89 Posted January 31, 2006 Share Posted January 31, 2006 I wanted to know what would be a good server os for this pc AMD Athlon 900 thunderbird core, VIA kt266a chipset, 512mb of ddr ram. I was thinking Darwin but i dont know if it would have all the drivers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zfire89 Posted February 1, 2006 Author Share Posted February 1, 2006 do you think darwin would work well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sigxcpu Posted February 1, 2006 Share Posted February 1, 2006 why don't you use linux? afp... don't know if it is supported. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
REVENGE Posted February 1, 2006 Share Posted February 1, 2006 just grab a copy of Fedora Core 4. Or if you want something lighter, try ubuntu or vector linux. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrJägermeister Posted February 1, 2006 Share Posted February 1, 2006 do you think darwin would work well I don't remember exactly but I'm thinking Darwin for x86 needs a SSE2 cpu (If I'm wrong correct me please) so it will not work with your Athlon900. If you prefer Unix until Linux take a look at OpenBSD, it's very secure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
