  | 1. Probably, since it runs great on a 700mhz box. 2. Boot of the first install CD, and follow the steps of the installer Keep in mind that you will probably need 128MB RAM and at least 2GB just to get the operating system, and nothing else. I recommend at least 256MB of ram and 10GB of hard disk space so that you will have room on your drive to install programs. |

| Remember to partition your hard drive. Use a program like PartitionMagic.
