I think I can help you here: My box - Pentium-I, 166MHz, 32MB RAM. My distro - Debian Woody 3r0. Desktop - XFce Office - StarOffice 5.2 (start/stop is slow) Browser - Galeon / Dillo Mailer - Sylpheed I have arrived at this combination after lot of trial and error with other distros. The latest RH7.3 onwards and MDK9, do not install on P-I machines.
