Friends, thank you very much for all your suggestions. I will look at them all more closely. I will try different things. You have been exhaustive in your suggestions, and I will discover quite a few things by exploring these solutions. :0)

Have a fantastic weekend!
The (full) story started here..

Just wanted to know if Debian 12.08 could run on this little Samsung N210 Machine.
It works well! But.. I really need to find a Linux distrib running fast with only 2 Go of Ram.
Any ideas/suggestions?
Are very welcome! :0)
As you see I've been able to install all the 3 system in a multiboot working.
Ok, do we boot?
Ok, here we are with this Samsung N210: a multiboot MSDOS 6.22 / Windows XP Pro.
Running Windows XP Disks Management we see we have 4 partitions: 1.) MSDOS. 2.) Windows XP. 3.) The partition for Games (and data). And 4.) the last one to install a Linux distrib (still not created).
Things are still going good! :0)
- I installed #MSDOS 6.22 at first.
- Creating and formating the Windows XP partition.
At this point, all is going good! :0)
To choose the Boot Device at startup just press ESC..
(Yeah, it's a different one on many machine, sometimes hell, haha)
I'm using this USB external Sony DVDrom : https://mastodon.cloud/@WoodooProd/112207551270869730
I just installed MSDOS 6.22 by cloning a backup ( https://mastodon.cloud/@WoodooProd/113740350507958218) . I will have to edit a lot of things in the config files, but I saved time. Hope to #BBS over #MSDOS again soon! :0)
I've upgraded the memory to 2Go. I think It's the maximum for this machine, "constructor said".
I finally received this Samsung N210, in very good condition! The battery still has a very good autonomy & the power supply/charger that I had, is compatible & does its job. Even if it's not original. Finally, here is the plan for the hard drive:
- #MSDOS 6.22 (or #FREEDOS 1.4?)
- Windows XP Professional
- Games Partition
- A compatible Linux: any recommendation?
I hope to be able to upgrade Memory capacity.
I bought a Samsung N210 a few days ago. I paid €17.98 with shipping. A good deal, I think. Perfectly functional. It just lacks the F11 key (which works anyway) & its power supply/charger.
Ideally, I would like to install a dual boot Windows XP/Linux to dedicate it to #retrogaming.
I will get it this week. :0)
Do any of you have experience with this little machine?
