It's been years since I used Canaima the last... This version was installed using a stick drive of 4Gb and, to spare me some time I used Gparted in advance, to prepare the HDD area of 70Gb: At the beginning 3Gb for Swap + 70 Gb as Extended (formated 4ext) partition.
Fortunately They used (and keep) the grafic install and it needs few typed instructions/commands (Keyboard + Lang. /Network + Wlan).
After the PssWrd Root they offered the guided partition (as always they did) and it took me more than 1/2 hours, since Iḿ using an old M/B with low RAM (DDR1 = 2Gb Ram).
By default it comes with Gnome and it didn't have Nvidia GeForce drivers for an old AGP 500 Gb ram. I had problems to cope with the graphic up to the moment I used Synaptic to update the video drivers of Nvidia (the machine was clumpsy and slow) up to I updated all I needed to eliminate any Windows OS off my old machine.
Although any political ill biase I have against this OS, I would recommend it much more than Emmabuntüs (which was slower and clumpsier on this same PC).
On this same machine (Pentium 4, 775i65G) I --unsuccessfully-- tried a "robustus" BrOs, AntiX (...) yet it siply worked with minimalists as puppy or FatDog. Unwilling to install Emmabuntus (which freezes too much) I have found Canaima behaves better than those I have tried (which were bigger than 2-4Gb).
Contrary to my will, I also tried "Escuela" (from Spain) and other I kindly noticed on Distrowatch, yet none of those I have mentioned worked better than this, that was troublesome, until I installed the Nvidia drivers.
As I typing on this site --tryin it on-- I recommend this OS (for old PCs) working with low resources, and slow wifi.
PS
I`d like to thank all he ppl and staff of DistroWatch! By no means I would have learned of so many distroes if this site were not mention them.
Thanks to YOU all! AJTH
