Add some RAM, getting at least 32MB and preferable 64MB.
I have successfully run Knoppix (Debian based) on a
machine with 32MB, but it isn't nice.

Even better, perhaps, would be DSL, which I have run on a
486 class machine with only 16MB of RAM.

NB: Text only mode, no GUI.

I was just *waiting* for someone to open the door and let us
greybeards play "remember when"!!!

Remember when Win95 ran well with 16MB RAM? (Shame on you!!)

Remember when OS/2 ran *great* with 16MB RAM?

Remember when Doom ran great on Linux and fvwm, with 16MB RAM and
et4000/W32p video card?
