Sarge installer for Mac Performa 6400/180 with 16MB RAM?

Hi. A user said she will bring a Macintosh Performa 6400/180 with 16MB RAM [1] to the installfest[2]. Will the sarge installer work with only 16 MB of RAM? I would like to know whether I can manage to install sarge there. I'm a little confused with this list of minimum recommended requirements
