<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>moving the HD from computer to computer is really
not feasable (can you use a lap top HD in a desktop?) as the installed hardware
componants will be different, and require significant reconfiguring when the
drives are replaced into thier respective machines.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>On possibility that no-one has mentioned (because
it is so old-school, I didnt think about it before) is to use lap-link cables to
connect the machines (one at a time) to a computer that DOES have a cd
drive.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><BR></DIV>thanks everyone for the help so far. I think ReactOS is not
really what i want but thanks for the suggestion, i didn't know the OS
:)<BR><BR>i did some searching in Distro Watch and found this nice one called
Deli Linux, it says that it was tested on a 486 laptop with 16mb and runs
smooth nice ^^ but it doesn't says anything about server capinilities so i
guess it needs third party stuff... <BR><BR>slackware still seems to be the
best contestant. i was thinking about using the laptop and the desktop as a
multi-cpu system, this can be done with slack right? oh and can slack be
installed through a network (or by the "moving HD to another computer"
method?) because as i stated before both pc's don't have a CD drive. <BR>
