I'm managing a small IT company in South France, and I have to deal with a considerable amount of legacy hardware in schools and town halls, mostly first generation Pentium IV with something like 1 GB of RAM. In general, folks are happy as long as they don't have to upgrade their hardware when moving from Windows to Linux. These old PCs may be dinosaurs, but apparently it takes a meteor strike to wipe them. At the moment this kind of hardware is running my personal blend of 32-bit Slackware Linux 14.0 or 14.1. I'm planning to install CentOS 6.x on it, but I think it would be perfectly able to run a 32-bit version of CentOS 7.

I am building all the packages for both as we do 7.1. But, so far the new kernel is not building 32 bit :( -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
