I had a 1 Ghz machine with 256 Mb RAM. And it froze when I ran the ubuntu installer, ubiquity. I bumpted it up to 512 and it worked. So I'll bet you have to have something more than 256 but maybe you can get by with less than 512. What is 256 + 128? 384, right? Didn't somebody else say they were running ubuntu from the CD with 384?
