Hi,

there is an distribution-review for recycling old PCs (Pentium I class).

				Fedora	Suse	Ubuntu

Installation with Gnome		3:00h	1:10h	1:45h
Minimal Installation		1:50	0:30	0:30
First Update with Gnome		4h	1:10h	0:26h
Boot in textmode		1:20m	1:10m	1:10m	
Boot with Gnome			2:20m	2:10m	2:20m

Seems Fedora is the slowest to install in low-memory conditions.

The authors states, that although selected in Anaconda the xfce-packages
were missing and he had to manually install them afterwards.
