I've been running a Pentium 150 with 64Mb SDRAM with no difficulty. I
ran with 32Mb with no problems, as well. The only difficulty I
experienced with Linux was when I attempted to run two HDDs with /,
/opt, /usr and /home on a WD UDMA(4.3Gb) with the swap partition on a
Conner(420Mb) IDE. I suspect that the ide just couldn't keep up and
"paged' me to death.

One other point: I've heard and can confirm only to a limited degree
that Linux gains more from RAM than from processor speed. There is a
limit to the ram at this point though.

Rehgards,

Bob
