A good distro for a legacy machine?

WMD:
Hmm, this is interesting:
http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/distributions/vectorlinux/veclinux-4.0/packages/

Apparently it's a whole mix of i386, i486, and i586 packages.  Someone was drinking too much coffee.

mobrien_12:
If I remember correctly, the K6 worked best with software optimized for either the K6 (Duh   :D  ) or i486.

Calum:
i'd still suggest slackware.

versions up to and including 9.1 compiled for i386, and version 10.0 (and above when it comes to it) compiled for i486 in case yr interested.

Refalm:
Yes Slackware. It may be hard at first, but once you installed it, it's like a rocket ship compared to Windows which is more like a Lada in comparison.

choasforages:
netbsd, runs great on everything including your toaster. im currently working on getting netbsd functuanal with a dreamcast.
