Really, that's about when 16M became Just Too Little, it has been a long
time.  And...you know, I'm not going to apologize for that. :)

2.7 worked pretty well on 16M RAM, iirc.  By 3.4, I'm pretty sure you
were swapping before you completed a login.

As a labor of love, you could strip a lot of stuff out of the kernel and
see if you could make something that worked, but it really isn't worth it.

Nick.
