... er, did you *read* the Release Notes on Fedora Core?

"Hardware Requirements

The following information represents the minimum hardware requirements 
necessary to successfully install Fedora Core 1:
...
# Recommended for text-mode: 200 MHz Pentium-class or better
# Recommended for graphical: 400 MHz Pentium II or better
...
Memory:
    * Minimum for text-mode: 64MB
    * Minimum for graphical: 192MB
    * Recommended for graphical: 256MB

... once upon a time, back in the days of DOS, this used to
be called RTFM --> the "readme.txt" or "readme.1st".

cheers,

Elton ;-)
