Well, 16 is probably too little, since the ramdisk takes up almost this
much space, I think. :) I installed on a 40 meg machine, and Linux is
perfectly happy. I did have install hang AFTER it formatted the drive,
during the "assign mount points" step. At this point I reboot, restart
the install, and when I get to the partioning step, I just leave my
partition map as is. After that, I don't have any problems.
