Q. I am an experienced linux user and i know how to install tar.gz in other linux distributions such as ubuntu. I want to install some software that is in tar.gz format on tiny core, but I cant find a guide online. All I found is how to make extensions on tiny core wiki, but I just want to install it on my system, not make an extension for the app browser. How do I install tar.gz in Tiny Core?
A. Tar xzf pathtofile
Cd pathtofile

What is the lighest(resources"Ram,Cpu" not OS size) linux distro while still having great performance?
Q. I am aiming towards Lubuntu because of being light on resources and fast computing and has a nice interface.
I am open for suggestions about light(resources) linux distro but not in favor of losing performance since performance is my top priority.

A. Lubuntu is good choice. There are even lighter distro like Siltaz, Tiny Core, Puppy, etc You don't need something like that unless you have a system 9 years old or more. I got a regular Ubuntu 10.10 to work nice on a P4 with 512 MB of ram after uninstalling a bunch of unneeded stuff like Compiz and bluetooth.
how do i build a computer with 2 small processors?
Q. i have bought a lot of old school computers. i would like to rebuild them and give them to less fortunate children for home use they presently have next to no hard drive so when i replace the 500mb hard drives with 20gb i will need more power from the tiny processors so i figured i would see if i could run with 2
some of these motherboards appear to have 2 places. is it possible to transplant? how?

A. Nice gesture petes mom! Don't get discouraged yet! However there are a few more problems, than just trying to install two processors for power.
(You can't. Don't try it. Motherboards that have two processors are for server computers anyway. Slower than heck, compared to the same processor speed in a single processor computer. They check and recheck the data before it is used. Dual core technology is a whole different 'game', and I'm not referring to this.)
So you got the 20GB units to work? Went past the harddrive limitation size on these old computers? http://www.dewassoc.com/kbase/hard_drives/hard_drive_size_barriers.htm
Next up is the O/S. Unless you have a Windows installation disk, for each and every computer. You could use a 'mirror image' of each Windows O/S on every harddrive, and transfer it to the 20GB ones.

Windows license states, "One genuine copy per One computer".
I hope these aren't Win95! lol! Win98? Ummmm, hmmmm,wellll,
Whatever!
When Windows is installed on a computer,(Activation, not Register.), it assigns 'codecs', to three major components,
1.Processor
2.Harddrive
3.Motherboard,(More specifically the BIOS program, on the BIOS chip, on the motherboard)
Change any two of these hardware components, and Windows wants to be re-activated. Sometimes just changing the harddrive, or processor does it.
Did you know that the Linux O/S uses less processor, and ram resources? Did you know the way the kernel is built, that it's virtually spyware/virus, etc., free? Did you know that 98% of Linux distro's,(Distributions), are FREE, and you can download them off the 'net?
Do you know that with installing Wine,(Free), Linux O/S'es can play Windows based games? Do you know that there are 1000's of free applications and programs for Linux? There is a free Office program,(OpenOffice.org), that looks very similar to MS Office, can run MS Office based documents, etc., plus anything composed in this program can be run on a MS Office based computer? (Doesn't lose files either!)

Edit: It's because they are Server motherboards. Like this,
http://www.weirdstuff.com/cgi-bin/item/15184
(By the way, scroll down to mid-page on the next link. They start with Intel Celeron's for Socket 370. They have Pentium III's also. Check the price. I know it's good stuff, because I have bought two motherboard's from them. One was a medium speed gamer board. They go FAST! lol!)

Depends on the age of the dual processor server board, but some of the old ones also needed voltage regulators. These are plug in modules, and there is one per processor.
(Need sum help? Email me with your questions. My background? I started, around the time Windows 3.1 was the 'hot' thing. Also click on my avatar.)
Edit 2: What I meant about the top paragraph above in parentheses, is that if it were a Single processor socket motherboard, you can't install two processors. With a Dual processor socket motherboard, of course you can!
