I Assume you mean Debian.
Why do you want 2.0?
Modern versions of Debian are still very good at running on old
hardware. I have 3.0 running happily on a Dell Optiplex 5133 which,
since the original processor died, is now a P100 because that is what I
had lying around. It's about 6 years old, I think it's older than any
Presario.
It does not appear to be particularly easy to find old versions. 2.2 is
still there on the FTP server. I can't find anything older.
If you meant something newer, http://www.debian.org/. See the "Getting
Debian" link.
Good luck! Debian is excellent if you're prepared to put a little effort
in.
Regards, Ian
