Well, we just helped a friend install SuSE 6.0 on her Celeron PC last weekend
without any hitches at all.
A Celeron (or "Celery" as we call it) is effectively a Pentium II as far as
compatibility issues go.
In fact, Kira here's now got it working on an AmSC410 embedded PC board (but
that was after working around a LILO bug that none of the LILO maintainers
wants to acknowledge is there).
Having said that, once she loses the luxury of a hard disk and it has to run
off 8Mb of Flash with no swap, I think it won't be SuSE but some distro of
her own possibly derived from Slackware.
BTW, SuSE 6.0 runs just fine on the 486 8Mb notebook she just acquired. KDE
is too heavy for it (it runs, but too slowly) so it's mainly used at the
command-line or qvwm, though it's also used as an X terminal to our big SuSE
box, for use in bed at the other end of a 25m 10baseT cable, and then of
course, KDE is fine!
