Minix is an operating system that includes a small built in web server and runs on a system as slow as an 8086. So when I have time I am going to pull out my old 286 and get it running. Hopefully I’ll have a web server running on a 286 10MHz with 2.5mb Ram ;)
More information can be found here: http://phoenix.anomic.net/ (This is a 286 web server so be nice to it)
Thanks ucosty for the heads up :)
EDIT: Big thanks to ucosty for providing me with some more hardware to complete this :D

How big a hard drive does it support? I guess you're using an ISA controller card, hey… has it got a 2GB limit, or smaller?

Not sure what it supports. Should be up to 8gb I'd think. The scsi HDD ucosty gave me is 3.2gb I think. I also got a 8.4gb IDE one off him too. Funky :)

Minix is the operating system that inspired Linux. It was written by Andrew Tanenbaum (if you study computer science you'll know who that guy is) and inspired Linus Torvalds to start writing Linux.
