i686 (Pentium Pro or later) is the minimum processor requirement
for 32-bit F12:

You didn't ask for installation of any packages that are on the
other discs at the customization stage of installation:

No HTML Mail, Please

Set your mailer to send only plain text messages to the list (How?
). Why? HTML is designed for web pages, not emails, and uses a lot
more bandwidth. Many list members actually block HTML because it is
used for malicious code.

Not only does HTML mail be used to run malicious scripts, but when
using handheld devices the time taken for the page to appear is also
much higher.

If You Are Replying to a Message

Make sure we can tell what you are replying to. Place each part of
your reply after the text it addresses (i.e., NO Top-Posting, please
see "Wikipedia - Top Posting" and links therein for more on this).
Most mail readers automatically put a '>' character in front of each
replied-to line. It gives a conversational flow to the text, and
people know what you're replying to. Trim irrelevant material. It
makes it easier to read your reply and helps the reader to stay on
subject. Using bottom, interleaved posting is recommened as it is
more organised.

A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text.
Q: Why is top-posting a bad thing?
