I'm not so sure that would have been simple on that hardware. With 64 MB even Knoppix will not boot into a GUI environment without requiring a swapfile/swappartition, which cannot be done if the drive is messed up, and thus will drop you into a root shell -- not exactly a friendly environment for someone new to Linux.
And once you've fixed the partitioning, installing and then running Linux with a GUI is going to be painful. Can it be done? Sure. But there are much easier ways to learn Linux.
