Last week, I installed Ubuntu 6.10 server version Linux on an old computer.
You can see some information below from phpSysInfo.

Let me record my installation history.

1) Download Ubuntu 6.10 server image file, and burn it on CD.

2) Boot the computer from this boot-able CD, while promoted, I choose LAMP, and use all 40GB hard disk for Ubuntu.

3) After Installed new system and boot into Ubuntu system. There is no GUI in default.

4) Change Source list.
Modify
/etc/apt/sources.list
Add following sources in the end of the file

deb http://ubuntu.cn99.com/ubuntu/ edgy main restricted universe multiverse
deb http://ubuntu.cn99.com/ubuntu/ edgy-security main restricted universe multiverse
deb http://ubuntu.cn99.com/ubuntu/ edgy-updates main restricted universe multiverse
deb http://ubuntu.cn99.com/ubuntu/ edgy-proposed main restricted universe multiverse
deb http://ubuntu.cn99.com/ubuntu/ edgy-backports main restricted universe multiverse
deb-src http://ubuntu.cn99.com/ubuntu/ edgy main restricted universe multiverse
deb-src http://ubuntu.cn99.com/ubuntu/ edgy-security main restricted universe multiverse
deb-src http://ubuntu.cn99.com/ubuntu/ edgy-updates main restricted universe multiverse
deb-src http://ubuntu.cn99.com/ubuntu/ edgy-proposed main restricted universe multiverse
deb-src http://ubuntu.cn99.com/ubuntu/ edgy-backports main restricted universe multiverse
deb http://ubuntu.cn99.com/ubuntu-cn/ edgy main restricted universe multiverse

5) Update system

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade

6) Install Webmin 1.330
Go to Webmin official site to download.
Decompress it and run,

sudo apt-get install build-essential
cd (webmin directory)
sudo ./setup.sh /usr/local/webmin

When installation completed, enter http://127.0.0.1:10000, or https://127.0.0.1:10000 to web interface.

Now I have a Linux box with features as below:
OS: Ubuntu Linux
Database: MySQL 5
Webserver: Apache 2
Language: PHP 5

I installed proftpD, Webalizer later.
