   Hi! Alexey,   
      
   On 10 Nov 2021, Alexey Vissarionov said the following...   
      
    AV>  PQ> I would recommend an old Puppy Linux, version 4.12 (Linux ver   
    AV>  PQ> 2.6.25).   
    AV> Never use old software. Even with old hardware.   
      
   I don't disagree with you.   
      
   OTOH, I first ran that version on a P-II/512Mb (a hand-me-down from the   
   gardner at work), and whose image still runs now as a VirtualBox VM.  It   
   served as our NAS for a decade, and a few other things (e.g. mini-DLNA   
   server).   
      
   Cheers,   
   Paul.
