FWIW, I'm running Slackware 9.1 very comfortably on a 100MHz Pentium
with 16MB of RAM. And it works well with both 2.2 and 2.4 kernels. This
might be easier to support in the long run than something as old as Red
Hat 7.0.
(I haven't tried Slackware 10 on this box yet, although I plan to in the
next several days.)
