Hi!! So it's a USB wireless adapter, and when I typed in lspci i got: 00: 07 .2 USB controller: Intel Corporation 82371AB/#B/MB PIIX4 USB (rev 01)

And when i typed in lsusb i got:
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b: 0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub

There is a cd which came with the USB to install the drive but I can't find out how to run the installation setup...and I can't seem to find the software management thing that you're referring to.

I installed Vector light into the hard disk instead of running it from the Live CD.

Thank you so much for all the help, I really appreciate it.

So I have vector linux light and I am trying to install a wireless adapter but I don't know how to actually run the install set up from the cd..(I know, really noob question)

any help is appreciated!

Will I be able to use Damn Small Linux as my main OS, or would I need another OS to run it??

So, I bought a Dell Inspiron 3800, which runs windows 98.

it has 64 MB RAM, Intel Pentium III, and it is a single core processor configuration

I was wondering if there was a Linux based OS that would run with this computer??

And if so, which ones??

Thanks, I've never use linux before, so I would appreciate all the help that I can get.
