Even PicoBSD, the single floppy version of FreeBSD, would like to have 8MB of memory. I have serious doubts that you will be able to get virtually anything to run in 1.9MB of memory. I could be wrong, and if someone knows of a tiny OS that will run under these conditions I'd be curious to know about it. I have recently been looking around at some tiny Linux installations, but even those absolutely require at least 4MB of memory.
