Well, I tried an e-mail to Tom Oehser, author of the tomsrtbt distro re my

It requires 8MB. The kernel already has the math emulation, that isn't the
problem. The problem is that it runs in ramdisks and uses bzip2 which also
needs a lot of memory. You should just get an old slackware installable
from floppies and install it to the hard drive. -Tom
