Jake,
You can make do with 64mB RAM (I run linux and bluedragon on it as
well for the same purpose), but not if you want to run X. I also recommend
a distribution like Slackware for lower-capacity machines as it just doesn't
have the bloat that Red Hat products do.

Subject: OT: Old RAM?
All,
I've recently acquired a family member's old Celeron 400mhz-ish box.
I've formatted and re-installed Fedora Linux on it and plan to use it as
a Linux CF test box.
Everything installed like a champ, and I'm playing around now. But it's
slooooow. So I checked out the RAM stats and the box only has 64MB, and
the minimum install is 256MB!
Before I went and bought RAM for this old box, I thought perhaps someone
might have some old SDRAM 168pin laying around I could trade or buy.
Help!
Jake
