Has anyone had experience with Dragon Linux? I am trying to install this distribution on an IBM laptop. I think it's a memory issue, but it has to be a way around it.
Thanks,

well I copied all of the needed files onto the laptop. Then I went to /dragon/setup/ and ran the setup.bat which should start the Loadlin.exe in the /kernel directory. Everything seems to work fine at first, then I get this message over and over:
VM: do_try_free_pages failed for swapper
Does this mean it can't create the swap drive, or is the install running out of memory. The problem is this>>>>> My old laptop has a 486DX4, 8MB, and 512 drive. This should be okay if you read the minimum requirments, but if you check the mem you find the machine has 5 or so available when I start the install.
