>>too?

8 mbytes and up is fine.  i've used cpu servers with only 4mbytes for
specialised functions (and it's probably possible to squeeze that further),
but you won't want to run very much on anything under 8 mbytes.
with less than 16mbytes, the system will page dramatically when you
link the PC kernel.
