Hi Kapil,
you should try Debian there you can customize what you would like to install or another option is trying specialized Distrubutions which acts as Fire wall (Like SHORELINE).
Using a general purpose Distribution like Red Hat 7.3 will demand high memory because it has grown up :)

Hi Kapil,
The problem is that you are trying to use latest
version of operating system.
Even an old version of Linux will do the same task
with good effect.
Try using Redhat Linux 6.2 on the system, it should
work on 16 MB RAM.
Else increase RAM on computer to 32 MB RAM while
installing Linux 7.x.
Once installation is over take out 16MB RAM

Subject: [ilugd]: RH Linux 7.3 wont run in 16 MB RAM
Hi,
I have been working with linux for more that 3
years!... My servers run
on
Linux!...
I managed to convince my friend into buying a Pentium
- I system with
16 MB
RAM 1.2 GB Hardisk that! was to run Linux and do the
proxying/natting
for his
internet connection. Now when the system is in my hand
for configuring
RH
7.3 says 16 MB is too less for it to run/install.
I had run my first linux installation on 486 with 512
MB HDD & 16 MB
RAM,
why should it not run now, when all I require is its
work as a router
What to do to save my face!......... somebody help
Thanks
Kapil
