I've got an old notebook from about 2002 that has only a pentium 3 600mhz with 192mb RAM and a 20 gb hdd.
Btw it's an old Asus L7300G that got relabled by a local supermarket brand.
It came with 64mb solded on the board and one extension slot. When I was in the shop fort a RAM upgrade they only had 256mb parts.
The board has an Intel MX chipset that only recognises 192mb so I can't give it any more as it can't "see" it. :(
A shame. My Dell has the best of the P2/P3 generation Intel chipsets, 440BX.
Mine gets it's 192mb with it's original 64mb and half of the additional 256mb module.
Even so, create a swap partition first, and you can then install openSUSE in text mode, or use one of the lightweight distros like others have mentioned. -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."
