XDsl on old notebook?

Post by baggacfreak »

Hi,

I would love to make a small cluster out of 3-4 xbox classic consols and got xdsl on the xboxs. To get a better programming place I would love to use an old notebook as cluster master. Would it be possible to install the same xdsl iso on that old notebook? As mentioned on other places clusters should be from the same sources/versions that way I could install the same mips packages and alike, but I no that xdsl was patched to work for the xbox specific hardware needs. So is it possible or better to install a new linux x86 iso without those patches?

Yes, why not simply use DSL (without the 'X' patches) on the laptop? http://damnsmalllinux.org/

As mentioned on the first posting cluster nodes should have all the same software running as different version sometimes to not work well together. Is there a way to tell which version the github xdsl is and get the old dsl version for the notebook?
