I personally wouldn't run Knoppix on a 486 with low RAM but you could try it. Running KDE on them would be very painful though.
>From the Knoppix site: (http://www.knopper.net/knoppix/index-en.html) Intel-compatible CPU (i486 or later), 20 MB of RAM for text mode, at least 96 MB for graphics mode with KDE (at least 128 MB of RAM is recommended to use the various office products), bootable CD-ROM drive, or a boot floppy and standard CD-ROM (IDE/ATAPI or SCSI), standard SVGA-compatible graphics card, serial or PS/2 standard mouse or IMPS/2-compatible USB-mouse.
