That hardware should work fine. I'm running it at home and work and no 
problems. I'm running the final ship version of scolinux 4.0..

The issue with small ram is still there. To load from the CD you need 
like 96MB because of the ramFS that loads. We reccomend 128MB on the 
box.. I think you can load from floppies, which you can create, with 
less ram because you aren't loading so many device drivers all at once..

your sound card wont be configured during install, run alsaconf to set 
it up after the fact.

use webmin to admin the system it seems to be working fine now. of 
course you can always just admin by command line if you like..

thats it.. if you have further questions let me know.. I'll try to assist.
