Sounds like Tobi’s on another side-quest.
It has a repo with programs you can install. The selection is fairly limited though.

That computer is in the basement and I’m not having any luck finding a list of what’s available.
Tiny Core would probably run on it.
I have it on a PII 333MHz with 192MB of RAM from 1999. It grinds to a halt if I try to open pretty much any modern website though.
Embrace, extend, extinguish
From Suse. It looks like V1 and V2 are maintenance only these days.
Looking at the rancher GitHub it looks like they can’t decide which direction they want to go.
So, basically Rancher?
Oof. Yeah, that would be tough.
I think I have a floppy or two around, but the only drive for them is on that machine and I wasn’t really willing to put any money into the project.
Looks like it would work. I did have an adapter lying around that let me use a CF card instead of a spinning disk, so that helped.
The biggest hassle was getting the thing to start because boot from USB didn’t really exist back then so I had to burn a CD and the drive on that machine is kind of flaky these days.
Though I will say that it’s not exactly usable. Pretty much any website makes it grind to a halt. But it’s good right up until then.
And if your computer can’t even handle that, there’s always Tiny Core.
My 25 year old PII with 192MB of RAM is surprisingly responsive with TCL.
HW raid also screws you if the controller dies.
That’s like two keystrokes in emacs.
It seems like everyone else has beaten the clock thing to death, but I just want to throw in my two cents. I have worked on NTP in the past and anytime there was a bug that set the time wrong, all hell broke loose with general usability of the client system.
If you’re using Debian and haven’t like, intentionally installed a bunch of shady stuff, malware is pretty unlikely.
Double check how/where your time is being set. Try turning off any automatic adjustments and see what happens for a little while.
I seem to remember canonical rushing pulse into an LTS before it was actually ready. Not the first time they’ve done that either.
There was a similar fuss when distros moved from alsa to pulse.
Heathen!
