I suspect that almost noone on newchix knew the answer. I did see it on
newchix,  but deliberately waited to see if someone newer would answer -
and then got distracted and forgot about it. Sorry!

We've just recycled a Toshiba Satellite 100CS, 80Meg hard disk, chip
about the same era, about the same RAM. (I forget the details). 

It has Debian on it, woody with a hint of sid (I wanted Evolution for
mail). That filled the HD - we've been sent a recycled 3Gig drive from
another geek, which we'll replace the current drive with.

potato would probably be fine, but I don't know for -certain-. Only that
woody/sid was fine for our Toshiba, or will be once the new drive
arrives.
