That's a potentially valid point too. My memory on this is: The limit used to be 8MB, and increased to 12MB later. So the OP's 16 MB computer should be fine unless things have changed again. I haven't tried yet. However, I was able to install a simple bridge box on a 4MB box through some level of hacking (of course not supported here for several reasons [custom kernel with small source changes, custom boot floppy], but worked for me). Kind regards, Hannah.
