Hi,
Have a look at the following:

and

If you need more info, please give us details about your hardware.
Cheers.

Thanks- I have a 14-year-old computer with Windows 98. I want to give it a new life (if possible) with SliTaz. It only has 64 mb of memory and some form of Pentium Processor. The Lowramcd looks like it would work for me, but I am not an advanced Linux user at all, so those instructions are like they're in a foreign language. So, with my old computer I probably can't install the normal SliTaz. If I use the LowRamCD will I be able to? How can I make/use the LowRamCD?

Also, I saw something about Tiny SliTaz. Would that still be able to have a (basic) word processor, internet browser, etc? Would Tiny SliTaz even look/function like SliTaz?

have a look at Antix. At least, it adertises that it can run with low end PII with 64MB ram.

I've gotten Slitaz 3.0 running on my IBM 365XD (120MHz Pentium, 40MB RAM, 1GB Hard Drive), but I had to use a roundabout way of installing it - basically, put the hard drive from the older laptop into a newer computer, install slitaz with that machine, then put the hard drive back in the old one.

Hi,

Thecovester :
You can run slitaz-installer with the loram cd. It does the same installation as the core cd.
Tiny-Slitaz is highly experimental and is designed to create tiny servers without X11 for virtual machines or (very) old hardware. Not suitable for desktop (yet).

Spork :
I think you have choosen the best way for installing SliTaz. Note that you could have use the 5 floppies subset of http://mirror.slitaz.org/floppies/ without newer computer.

Here's something to circumvent installing on another computer, etc.

Basically, it's a clean install of Slitaz Cooking 20101104, which you can unzip it to a partition (needs at least 113MB), provided you've already partitioned your hard drive. You may need to edit /etc/fstab on that for it to boot correctly, and you do need to reinstall GRUB once you've copied the filesystem over.
