RH9 is no longer supported, Fedora Legacy has dropped it as well as most
of the rest of the Fedora line. This is why I cannot recommend RH9 for
any use.
Damn Small Linux does work, and is great to put onto a USB keyfob.
My point in mentioning RH9 was that you don't have to go back in time
as far as RH6.2 to find something that will run on that hardware. For
that matter, I think that Fedora Core 6 would do OK if you installed
neither Gnome nor KDE. You get the rather primitive twm for a window
manager. It reminds me very much of what I had on my VAXstation II in
the early 80's.
