I would like to ask if someone could please put a linux operating system on dvd or cd for me and post it off to me. I found a place last year that did it but I just rang them for about the second or third time and they aren't answering. Maybe it's to do with covid? Anyway I have an old desktop from about 2006. It's a Dell optiplex GX520 with BIOS version A07. I have been running Manjaro on it but as of the last 2 months different sites have stopped working properly. It may well be hit and miss with what may run on it. If you would be willing to send a copy could you post that here on this thread and then people who look can see that someone is onto it. My email was posted above in a title of a post - I didn't want it to be but it was. So could you please send me an email and then I will have your email address and can tell you my postal address. I will also have further details of what Manjaro program I have been using - I forgot to look at the welcome window and see what it is. Yes I can also look at the disk when this session is over. And then you could tell me how much you would charge - does $25 including postage sound fair?
Not sure whether anyone has already replied off-list. In order to determine what exact processor you have on your desktop machine (and therefore help what Linux distro will work with it), can you post the output generated by the following command (executed in a terminal): cat /proc/cpuinfo > ~/cpuinfo.txt The command will create the file "cpuinfo.txt" in your home directory, which you can attach to your post.
