Hello,

What will do with it ?  I will tell you later.

The computer is built with an obsolete processor that I managed to find, with a RAM from yesterday that I managed to find. The processor is a 333 MHz processor and the RAM is DDR I, 256 MB. I wish I could find a 128 MB ram, but I did not find one easily, so the installation task is easier than it was meant to be.

I want to use a hard disk that is 512 MB in size, in total, and  I can be very, very generous and offer one fourth of the hard disk for the operating system.  I will connect this computer to a LCD display.

I want a browser that will connect to the internet by wire and by WiFi. I want to listen to the audio and music in the websites that I access. If the Webpage requires flash / Active X, my computer should handle it. I am not greedy, I don't want star office, I don't want games and I don't want any other application. A PDF reader perhaps.  

What components of Solaris would I install and what components would I leave out ?  I learnt that I need  some network components, the display related components, GUI related components... 

How many from this forum think that it is possible ? And please tell me how.

I will buy you an ice cream ( or send you a bunch of roses if you so prefer ) if you send me a list of components to install within that portion of the hard disk that I have set aside for installation.
