We have an original Pentium 75 MHz PC with 32 MB of RAM we are trying to use as a terminal client. Etherboot loads, it gets the kernel, we see the dots.

Then it hangs at

Ramdisk at 0XFFF280000, size 0X000D8000
Uncompressing Linux... ok, booting the kernel

Searched the list archives. Suggestions from past messages were to try other kernels. I have tried ltsp_kernel-3.015, ltsp_kernel-3.0.10 and ltsp_kernel-3.0.5 without success.

Is the original Pentium CPU too old? Or is 32 MB of RAM too little? Other ideas?

A Pentium III at 1 GHz and 256 MB RAM boots fine. We are using the AOpen NICs from DisklessWorkstation.com in both.

The server is LTSP-4.1 running on Gentoo Linux.
