I have a 486 with 8mb of RAM.  I installed slink on it last year, and
upgraded to potato this year.  The upgrade was fine with 8mb, but I
wasn't able to do a clean install with 8mb.  I tried a couple of
different boot disks, but didn't find one usable, so I went with the
upgrade.

Can your machine see the 1279Mb disk?  I suspect it will only see 512mb
or something like that.

Hope that helps.
