Unfortunately, we've reached the stage where a Pentium II will no longer run even a remotely usable browser. Nowt to do with the glibc, or dependencies, or anything like that; the CPU simply doesn't possess the required instruction sets to be able to process the code.

Only way round that would be an upgrade - to at least a Pentium III, (or preferably a P4) - and neither of those will fit the 'cartridge slot' socket that the P2s used. Unless you can find a very early, 'Katmai'-cored Pentium III.....the only PIII to still use the Slot-1 configuration:-

After that, Intel moved over to 'Socket 370', their first use of the fPGA package type:-

All PIIIs had at least the SSE instruction set.....and for that, there are SSE-only builds of PaleMoon floating around the forum.
