Linux Lite on Old IBM Thinkpad

[ishmael23]

Has anyone ever loaded Linux Lite on an IBM Thinkpad A22m? I have a perfectly serviceable IBM Thinkpad A22m running Win XP and its specs (512 RAM; 1ghz Pentium III processor; 30 GB hd) match Linux Lite requirements. I would appreciate "how to" tips and "lessons learned" from the forum.
Also, what is the best approach: overwrite XP or dual-boot? If the latter is recommended, how do you do it?

I have not done it, but loading Linux onto that laptop should be dead easy.
I suggest replacing the XP partition. The installer will walk you through that when you do the installation.
The easiest way to install if from USB. See this link for how to prepare a usb stick: https/www.linuxliteos.com/manual/install.html#llusbwin
