Bana Banner

[banazir]

Around December, 2005, I bet taiji_jian a banner reading "Pag is leeter than Bana" that he couldn't refurbish a COMPAQ Armada LTE 5250 that had been retired by the Kansas Department of Transportation around 2003, and restore it to network-capable condition

AHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Well *THAT* took long enough. And, I had Debian with X running on it too. ;P

Debian with X

[banazir]

Yeah, that was actually leeter than the NES thing (which was Win98 or something, wasn't it?).

Yeah, Win98 with Nesticle! That was actually a fair challenge too. Debian has boot floppies and can install over a network connection, so I just set up a point-to-point with a parallel cable between Brixtomp and XPBOX.

Win98 is on a CD and Brixtomp has no optical drive. I had to track down a DOS PTP file transfer thing to get the Win98 install files on to Brixtomp.
