Re: [SLE] SUSE on small machine

I'm trying to get SUSE 9.2 to install on an old machine with just 64M of core and no CD-ROM drive. OK, I built the half-dozen floppy images on another machine and went to install from that machine over HTTP. The install starts, warning me to add swap first (which I do, as there's already a Linux swap partition available), but then it just hangs with the progress bar about 3/4 filled.

Is this even possible in 64M?

I have installed SuSE 9.1 in 64 MB, without difficulty. However, I didn't install any GUI, as it's used only as a firewall. I installed from CD thought. I don't know if a network install has greater requirements.
