Wow, I use a computer not much better than that one. :-)
And I've been installing Linux for customers in machines with
worse conditions than that one: I've been installing a minimal
install of slink (just the base system) and then upgrading and
installing the necessary packages (apt is great). :-) The
systems usually are 486s with 8MB of RAM and about 200MB of
disk. :-)
