| What type of processor does it have?  1.9MB of RAM is not very much.
| 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.
