Hi, I set Peanut up on a P200. I had the devil's own job installing it, but I eventually did it. It is quite a nice distro, but I don't have much experience of alternatives, all I know is it's "optimised" for lower-spec machines.
My PC had 80Mb RAM, but the more the merrier. IMHO the GUI was too slow to be usable- it was the first time I played with KDE, and all it succeeded in doing is make me want a decent spec. PC to run KDE because it's cool. If you are just running a text-only box then any distro will do (right?). If you need a hand setting up Peanut I will help- I am indebted to Steve Wright from the NZLUG who prodded me in the right directions when I got stuck, so it's only fair to spread the knowledge. I must say that now that PC has Debian 3.0r0 for me to play with...
