ubuntu for LX800 processor

Question

nonpae Is it possible to install an updated version of Ubuntu onto an LX800 processor? The computer has 1G of Ram 8G flash disk. For a number of years I've been using these computers (PC104) as IOT type devices using Ubuntu 8.04 and Ubuntu 10.04. Thank you

The LX 800 states that it has 500Mhz. A Ubuntu desktop needs 700Mhz to run.

Use Ubuntu Server or another distrio instead.

(It pays to use LiveCD's!)

What is with the random comment with (light) profanity? Might want to remove that before someone gets offended and flags it :) – Mark Kirby Oct 05 '16 at 11:54
So what version of Ubuntu server to install and how? – Steve S Oct 31 '16 at 13:46
@SteveS The latest LTS release. the installer functions just like Ubuntu Desktop. But if you are not intending to build a server, use either Ubuntu MATE or Lubuntu. (use google to get download ISO's) – Nov 03 '16 at 05:34
@MarkKirby I doubt that will not happen.. – Nov 03 '16 at 05:35
