That said, the latest fedora I could install was F14.

What was blocking the install? If it was memory? You should be able to
install f17 on a machine with 512 MB again. With less memory, you might be
able to do yum upgrades, but that will be painful.
I'm not really sure.
'Twasn't memory, I've the full 4 GB.
There was a kernel bug that broke my motherboard in F15 or F16.
Supposedly that was fixed, but F17 didn't work either.
I've written articles on the subject.
I managed to do a net-install of CentOS on the first attempt,
so I'm reasonably happy on the Linux front.
I might try F20, just to see if it works.
