FWIW I was running sarge (kernel 2.6.8) on a P75 with 32mb ram on my home 
network a couple of months ago.  Note that the install was done on a P2 
which subsequently died.  
I was able to simply transplant the disk.  
Everything worked fine, which was surprising, given that the BIOS was not 
able to recognise the 6Gb harddisk.
