I'm running a 486 with 8MB of RAM. I tried to install RedHat 7.2 and I got an error saying that I don't have enough RAM to install it.

Looking at RedHat's site I found that to install RedHat 7 you need 32MB of RAM.

Does anyone know what distribution of Linux could run with only 8MB of RAM?

Thanks. :cool:

Slackware or Debian are probably the best bets. SuSE might let you do a text install, but don't quote me.

Popular question that is.
