I have a old Windows 98 computer and I was wondering if I could run Ubuntu on it. It has a 6 GB Hard drive (i know!) If I can't run Ubuntu what version of Linux can I run?

Ubuntu's requirements say that it needs "at least 256MB of RAM" and "4GB of disk space". Now, you could probably tweak the install so it requires less disk space and less RAM. If you don't want to do that, you can use another Linux distro targeted for older hardware. Linux can easily run on old hardware with little RAM and hard drive space.

Damn Small Linux, FTW.

Damn Small Linux.

I suggest booting from a floppy disk so you can have the entire 6 gigs.

Or puppy linux! Its a little bit bigger than DSL but it looks better.
