Re: [Trinux-talk] small memory

[kekc <ke...@ru...>]

Hi, man.

Please, read FAQ before asking:
1). 1.3. What Hardware Is Supported?
  Trinux will boot on any i486 or better with at least 12-16 megabytes
  of RAM, depending on how many packages are loaded.
2). Hardware Compatibility
Here are some of the hardware configurations I have successfully
tested withTrinux. In general, it is safe to say that Trinux will boot
on any 486 desktop with at Least 16mb of RAM. If you tweak the ramdisk
size by editing the ramdisk file on the boot floppy you can make it
run on machines with less memory. If you recompile the kernel to
support 386's with math co-pro it should work on a 386, although I
don't know why you'd want to (I have 386-20 still running at home, so
I should know.)
