It shouldn't. There is even a lowmem udeb which reduces the memory footprint [1]. I could even install with debian-installer on my Amiga 1200 with 64 MiB. Please don't necessarily take tests on qemu as a reference. Rather test on real hardware. Adrian > [1] https://packages.qa.debian.org/l/lowmem.html -- .''`.
