One of our departments here are rumored to have a large number (ie.
hundreds) of 486s running such a cluster, and it is very nice, so I am
told...

Confirme is what I have done is relatively suitable.
I can put hda1=40 Mb and hda2=8 Mb for my disk is too small.

PS.
4 Mb of RAM is not enough I had to put 8 Mb to make it work.
Perhaps it's possible with slink but not with potato.

I have potato on a 486SX, 25MHz, 300MB hard drive, 8MB RAM. It tends
to drag because it swaps a lot, but otherwise is fully functional. I
had it masquerading the dial-up connection with no problems. The
reason I don't have it masquerading the DSL connection is I don't want
to buy a second ISA

Yes this clears it up, I'm not using ppp (or pptp) so I forgot all about it

A router would do that. A switch is a link-layer device. It is the
same as a hub, but

I think you might be struggling with only 1Mb of ram to get any Linux

Even Small Linux (http://www.superant.com/smalllinux/) requires a 386
with 2Mb ram.
