System requirements for CentOS 5 minimal installation (console and
ssh) are....128 MB ram, 256...? I can't find this information in rhel5
installation manual.

I have seen problems on the list with installing the beta in less than 256 MB,
but how useful would a server be with much less than that? Especially with the
2.6 kernel. I remember running the 2.0 kernel in as little as 32 MB, 2.4 had
some trouble with less than 64MB, and I guess some feature bloat just creeps
into everything.

Hog.
I ran an Internet server for some years running RHL 4.2 and a 2.0 kernel in 8 Mbytes.

Until its disk died, I was running a perfectly credible server for a small LAN on a Pentium III with 128, maybe 192 Mbytes of RAM. The only time it was short of RAM was when running rsync to back it up, when it used an enormous amount of swap.

It was running Debian/Sarge.
