Last I checked, I seem to remember seeing some outrageously high RAM
requirements for Fedora installation. Even the text-based install was
listed in at least one location as requiring something like 96MB of RAM.
If that's an accurate representation of the requirements, I'd like to
know how he shoehorned Fedora into a system with only 48MB of RAM. If
not, I'd like to know where that number came from, though of course I
didn't bookmark it so I've no way to check now.
