During my test of this distro on a Pentium IV 1.7 GHz,
256 MB RAM, SiS 650 video card, it took a lot of time
for the desktop to be up and running. More than 8
minutes  totally. However, I still couldn't see the
desktop and ended it forcefully. Does that mean,
atleast 512 MB of RAM would be required to boot
easily? 

I could however, boot it using a machine which had
Core Duo, Intel 945 GL, 1 GB RAM and run beryl
smoothly.

(Release notes didn't include minimum system requirements).
