I am a complete Linux noob, let's get that out of the way first. A friend of mine gave me a copy of Knoppix and I've gotten quite interested in it. Up till now I've been a M$ user and have heard all the proponents of Linux saying how grand it is and want to experience it for myself. Now here's the thing...I've got an ancient system that's not doing more than being a dust collector/paperweight. I figure I can reload it as many times as I want and not interfere with what goes on my main system. Yes, yes, Knoppix runs completely from the CD and won't muck up the current HD load unless I make it do so. What I'd like to know are general suggestions of which Knoppix distro that'd be best suited for my system, running off the hard drive.

Here's the guts of the thing:

Pentium 133
48MB RAM
2GB hard drive
8x CD-ROM
STB Lightspeed 128 (ET6000 based) video
Dual voodoo2 (SLI) cards (best thing on this thing actually)
USR 33.6K modem
Ensoniq Soundscape card

I just reloaded Windoze 98 on the machine to see if it still works (and it does). It's an old Gateway machine that my sister used for college but she has a nice new machine and didn't want this one anymore.

So, all that being said, any suggestions for this random goon?
