I just picked up a compaq areo, it has 12 meg or RAM and a 180 meg HD. Is it possible to install SuSE on such a small machine.
Probably not. Given 48MB of swap space on the disk you might get the text based installer to run, and, with 140MB or so of disk space left, you /might/ be able to deselect enough packages to get a kernel and text console which boots as far as a login prompt. It's hard to see what the point is, though. The machine would be as good as useless. --
