OpenBSD.

| I want to put OpenBSD on one of machines I have and use it as a terminal to do various stuff, like learning, programming, exploits maybe (they say that there are not much exploits for OpenBSD) and other experiments. Will Pentium 4 (idk if HT would do anything) and 512MB of RAM do it?


| I have OpenBSD runing on Pentium III, 2x128 MB RAM, so I would say yes.


| And this PC can run X.


| Whoa, nice. Will definitely try it.


| repeating from another thread, nothing promotes good resource management like real world physical constraints


| Pentium III and IV will only consume electricity and your learning sessions will be way more expensive than necessary. If you already have a laptop or any other computer that you use everyday, install Virtualbox and create a virtual machine for your *BSD and use that as learning grounds.


| >>141955 I don't pay for electricity yet so it will be okay


| >>142287
So then you do not want to learn and experiment with *BSD. You want a toy to play with and you have decided aleady it is that P3/P4 machine.
But it'ok though.


| >>142429 no, not a toy. I just happen to have a P4 machines lying around and I don't want to mess with VMs/dual boot on my main PC.


| You can still learn with a toy I don't see the problem
