Depends on what you want to do with this.  Certainly, you can
install Debian on a system like this (I have Debian installed on
a similar system eating up about 100 megs of hard drive space). 
Probably, Storm would make for a decent install as well.

You basically want to forget about X Windows, though.  While you
*could* run it on such a system, it would be painfully slow.

Do you have a CD-ROM drive in that machine?  It would certainly
help to install.  :)

So once again, the question is what you want to do with this
system.
