STREAM ARCHIVE: Pain and Suffering LIVE with Debian Linux 2.1 from 1999 On Real Hardware!

Once again, I’m diving back into Debian Linux madness, this time in livestream form to allow folks to experience in real time the madness that is setting up and installing Debian Linux 2.1 on real hardware with my Thinkpad 380D.

Last time we explored Linux on the Thinkpad 380D, I only covered install, but this time, we’re going to go much more in-depth with exploring setting up X, the “wonderful” choices in desktop environment, the pain in getting NeoMagic displays up and running and maybe trying to upgrade through successful versions of Debian. I’m going to be performing an in-depth exploration of Debian 2.1, answering questions in real time, and just having a good time with all.

During this stream, we’re going to start by FIPS the harddrive and attempting to dual boot with Windows and Linux, go through the Debian Liux installation process, setup X and maybe even do some retro web surfing, and then follow up with exploring starOffice or other commerical software. Depending on time, we may try upgrading through every version of Debian on real hardware.

This is a follow-up to my original videos on 90s Debian Linux and this boxed set of Debian with I trashed nearly two months ago.
