Naw, Both FC6 and F7 install fine in 256 MB RAM. I've just done it on an
old PII-400 Toshiba Tecra 8000 with 256 MB and 14 GB HDD.
Fedora does run a bit faster than XP on the same unit. In fact, I
replaced the XP already on it because of the horrible performance.
KDE was pretty sluggish until I knocked color resolution down to 16-bit.
That made a huge difference.
Unfortunately, I'm having problems getting the ancient OPL3-sa3 sound
chip to make any noise at all. So right now I'm trying the Kubuntu
Feisty LiveCD to see if it is any smarter.
If no one else has 6 CDs (Carl?), I may have a set squirreled away.

My host OS is windows XP SP2.
I'm willing to install a virtual PC, and install fedora on it, so I can
simulate a web server on it. Do you, guys think that it is going to be
possible for me?
By the way, I got a digital camera that needs a male-to-male USB cable to
connect it to the computer, and nobody at Frys know what I'm talking about
(why that doesn't surprise me?) Does anybody has a cable like this and is
able to bring it to the fest next sat?????
Thank you!!!!
