| Quote (webs05 @ Feb. 10 2005,15:04) | As you can probably tell already I am a noob. But my fascination with Linux is off the charts. Like many computer techies I did not know how amazing Linuz OS's have become in the last few years, and because of this I have not really payed attention to it till recently.
Anyways, at work one of the guys I work with introduced me to Knoppix and I fell in love. Our idea to implement it at work is to strip it down to only running Mozilla Firefox, and use it for the "walk-up email stations" we have at various locations. These computer that it will run on will be AMD about 1.5-1.7Mhz with 256mb ram, and hopefully no hard drive. From what I have read in the forums, it seems like we will have to remaster it, which is similar to modifying the files so that it boots with the required things we want. If this is correct please let me know.
Also we would want to create a user that only has access to running Mozilla. If this is feasible please let me know.
If anyone does help me I would be very gracious and would like to thank you ahead of time. I have only started my journey with Linux this month and I realize I have a lot to learn, but a jumpstart would really help me and the guys I work with. Thank you for your time. |
Those will be some mega pympin rigs running only a web-browser!!!
Im sure if you ask one of the remaster "Super-Gods" They could easily whip something up for you...and even perhaps make it boot "toram" which would make it almost instantaneous!
Very novel idea and with those kinds of system specs running DSL in thiat for from a CF disk (no harddrive, cdrom) would make it even more powerful and secure for your business...
Good post and a very good start for someone with only 1 post...nice forum ettiquete
