Will it run in 256Mb RAM and on 512Mb of disk?

Huh. A small version of Debian Etch. Boots (once POST has complted)
in under 25 seconds.
Hmm, old versions of software, and apt-get upgrade causes the system
to die (root disk filled out) but definitely a possibility.
I believe Synaptic is installed. I did not upgrade but used Synaptic to
I got my hands on a HP t5720. This was designed as a thin-client

256Mb RAM (16MB used for video) and a 512Mb flash hard disk.

What do people recommend for building this? What would have the quickest

Well, you could use thin station, I have used it in the past and its pretty
slick...

Hmm... I'll take a look at that.
Thanks!

My reading of the ltsp pages is that they prefer to distribute it as
an OS image, with the ltsp components already integrated and that it's
hard work to do the integration yourself.
Install the image for a t5725 from a USB stick. Very cool.

So I thought this would be a great device to build as an instant on

means a standard C5 build is not suitable (too many processes running;
