Have you seen this? - Pringle - 02-18-2019
There's an os that takes up 1.44mb of space and requires 8mb of ram. That's right. Not gb but mb. I don't know if you've heard of it, but I don't believe this at all. I really want to setup dualboot with this now...

Back In my days of running the good old 16-Bit "Windows 3.1", only 2MB of Ram was required.
I'll check your link after this post.

I am not very impressed with this OS system. it does remind me of old school windows 98 and lower.
