This:

"233Mhz AMD-K6 MMX"

belongs with CPU/RAM info.

What does it do or not do and what "disk" do you want to install?

If at first you don't succeed, you're about average.

An intelligent question gets an intelligent response.

This just gets people guessing and will not be helpful to you or us.

Are you looking to install a hard drive or the operating system?
