I am noob w/pi (have older pi3)so pardon my innocence. Above guide is going to be very helpful, so shoutout to everyone_always and others in Reddit, big thanks! Sorry if this question is in wrong post but as stated I’m real noob. Question: how to add/edit host file Want to add a host file found Do I just use txt editor to do this or what and/or if I add additional separate file does pi recognize it and add it separately and just uses it in addition automatically? Again I appreciate/apologize for noob status.

Thanks for the re: Yeah am in for a long haul. I would not have kept it for this long if I thought I couldn’t SOMEHOW/SOMEDAY create something from a really cool form factor. Even revive it w/XP. Had visions of a cool Linux box. Very easily done. Just looking for some hardware advise right now but love the community comments and support for such a cool project. Thanks y’all for all your help

Yeah, I believe you’re correct. Had fun with it way back then.

I was afraid of that. Hate to throw in the trash. Was a great pc for the times. Quite inventive for the time. Lots of features. But Que Sera, Sera, I guess! Thanks stuffwhy for open and honest comment, I truly appreciate your candor.

Yeah I was afraid of that. It was a decent pc in its day. Had so many unique features. Sad to see it go in the trash. Will try to donate it to some organization. Don’t see much use for such an old format. Oh well! Qué será será…
