You WILL want more than 16MB if you want to use gcc, trust me. You migth be able to get it working on 16 by using tons of swap space, but it'll be swapping like a wounded moth. 32 would be minimal, 64 would be better, 128 would be great.

I wish to install Red Hat linux 7.1 on a machine with 16mb of EDO Ram. When I enter the instalation process I am told 'You do not have enough memory'. Is there a way to install RHL with only the 16? Or will I have to upgrade and buy some very expensive EDO.

builder-cc
BUILDER-CC(1) Debian GNU/Linux BUILDER-CC(1)
NAME
builder-cc - gcc wrapper to facilitate pentium-optimizations
SYNOPSIS
export DEBIAN_BUILDARCH=architecture
export DEBIAN_BUILDGCCVER=gcc-version
gcc ...
DESCRIPTION
The builder-cc wrapper is normally used by calling gcc as usual. If the environment variable DEBIAN_BUILDARCH is not set, builder-cc does
nothing, and the real gcc is invoked with the specified arguments.
When the DEBIAN_BUILDARCH environment variable is set, builder-cc invokes gcc with the specified arguments, plus -mcpu=DEBIAN_BUILDARCH
-march=DEBIAN_BUILDARCH This has the effect of telling gcc to use architecture-specific optimizations without changing the command line.
This is particularly useful for package builds.
If DEBIAN_BUILDGCCVER is not set, builder-cc calls gcc.real. If DEBIAN_BUILDGCCVER is set, builder-cc calls gcc-DEBIAN_BUILDGCCVER
instead.
ENVIRONMENT
DEBIAN_BUILDARCH
If set, the architecture to compile for. Useful values are pentium or pentiumpro.
DEBIAN_BUILDGCCVER
If set, the version of gcc to be invoked. Useful values are 3.0 or 2.95.
NOTES
The real gcc is renamed gcc.real, and a diversion is registered with dpkg-divert(1). Thus builder-cc's idea of the default gcc is dictated
by whatever package installed /usr/bin/gcc.
