I'm running netbsd-4 on my 'classic pretty reliably. It's my firewall.
Thanks. I just realized I only have 24 MB, too.
Oh, and remember to cross-build because on the 'classic things take a while.
... and while there don't forget to put -mcpu=v8 -mtune=v8 into CFLAGS, otherwise you'd get v7 binaries which would slow things down even more.
have fun Michael
