I'm still running my "old" PII-400 as well. It's been a solid performer. For what I do, it still does the job just fine.
Anyway.
I should probably re-install, and give it "one more for the Gipper"...
It "did" run the first time. I don't know why it wouln'd re-boot after that. It just hangs on "Setting up Logical Volume Management". Maybe no one else is running LVM, and the problem has just gone unnoticed?
I have some time today. Maybe I'll give it one more go around, and if it still doesn't work, I'll report it to bugzilla. As was said, If they don't know, they won't fix it. ;)

Well, that was fun. Per the suggestions here, and on the errata, I unplugged the printer, and tried it again. And as expected, it made it past that.
So, with the load finished, I logged in as a regular user. Yup. Worked fine.
So, then do the cursory reboot, just to be sure all is well, and ..
Klank.. klunk.. ppfffttttt............ nada
I dies on starting up logical volume management... It just hangs there. So, time to put a reliable system back on it.
Maybe rc2. ;)

Ric, Here's what I've done to get it installed and running in a pretty stable mode:
Pentium II 400
256MB RAM
Matrox Millenium 400 Dual Head 32MB
17" Pixie Monitor setup as ADI MicroScan 17X
Logitech USB wheel Mouse setup as generic USB wheel
RTL-8139 NIC setup with DCHP to a smoothwall firewall and cable internet connection.
1)Expert install up untill the lock out in Summary.
2) Reboot into runlevel 3 and run drakconf to set up Xwindows, networking and KDE
3) add other items after login using either urpmi or MCC software installer.
4) Use printerdrake to set up cups.
