I've got gentoo on a p100 with 64M ram and a 6G drive.  It runs just
fine tho X is being tempermental(it wont load for whatever reason... not
that that is a big deal as it's a server box).   Depending on what your
putting on there it can take awhile.  Qt takes about a day... but in
general I think it took 3 days to get the install done.  

I'm personally trying to decide if I should freebsd my sons computer or
gentoo it.  It may well end up on gentoo because it is leaner afik.  My
sons machine is an amd k2/6 with 128M ram and only a 2G & 400M
drives.(well for now til I upgrade something and give him a diffrent
drive)
