Ubuntu cannot harm your computer's hardware at all.

If you dont have much experience with installing operating systems, and try to install ubuntu, there's a possibility that you can overwrite all the data that is currently on the hard drive.

However, if you are installing Ubuntu on a blank hard drive, then there is no harm that can be done by doing so.

Ubuntu is a very useful linux-based operating system.

There were several computers in the IBM PC 300GL line, with a variety of specs. Knowing which particular model you have is key to selecting a version of Ubuntu or similar distribution. For instance, all versions of Ubuntu would run poorly (if at all) on the 6272, while suggesting a Debian netinstall on a 6564 would be a little too spartan compared to what the system is capable of handling.
