One question - do you know of any minimum hardware requirements for
successfully running AlienBBC with SlimServer from a slimcd  install?

I can't give any serious indication. I once run it on a P/200 with 64MB RAM. It would start, would even play (at 100% cpu load), but a.) very flaky and b.) memory would soon fill up. Remember that logs, database and everything is held in a ramdisk, using precious memory.

Best you can do is run it in non-graphical mode. From the lilo prompt (boot screen) type "dsl 2" to boot into text mode. This saves a little memory.

I'm looking at trying to use a Celeron 266MHz processor with 96MB RAM -
I'm guessing this might be underpowered?

Good guess :-). But just run it and do the test! It won't touch your existing system, it doesn't cost anything. And you'll soon see whether it's usable or not.
