Out of curiosity I recently installed Debian Stretch on my Pentium Pro 200 (dual CPU). The text based installer warned that my 128MB of RAM wouldn't be enough for it to finish, but luckily it still succeeded. The system boots within a minute or so and is fairly usable. Running X on s3fb with i3 as the WM, the selection of usable GUI programs is rather limited then admittedly. Still, I guess we really came a long way from 486 to PPro. :-)

I had a stack of ~25 floppies that I used to download linux with X and some programs to run on a 486.

Software has gotten much bigger...

I'd be interested to know what TomsRtBt is like on that machine.
