I'm running a 386 w/4Mb RAM with 1.4.2 as a router/DHCP server/secondary
DNS/syslog server.  It runs these quite reliably I might add.  Of
course, I had to minimize the size of the buffer cache (NBUF & BUFPAGES)
and strip down the kernel as GENERIC wouldn't even boot in 4Mb.  

I don't how much longer this 386 will be able to track the current
releases.  My understanding is that like most other software projects,
the kernel is getting significantly bigger and bigger in each release.
