I found an old notebook PC lying around and I’m wondering if it could be enough to run a few services like the arr suite, qbittorrent and pi-hole.

Here’s a few specs: Cpu : Intel Celeron 1011 1.6ghz Ram : 1Gig Ethernet port

If you think it’s not a total waste of time, what distro would you install?

Puppy Linux!

Xubuntu, Lubuntu, Gentoo, Peppermint…

Some others like damn small linux or nano Linux or Linux lite.
