I have a Linux Mint running on a intel atom CPU with 256mb ram and no graphics card and it kinda works.

minus-squarejmcs@discuss.tchncs.delinkfedilinkarrow-up83·19 hours agoLightweight distros need less than 1GB of RAM, so you don’t need to use the entire RAM.
minus-squareBCsven@lemmy.calinkfedilinkarrow-up4·4 hours agoIt is amazing how little you need to have a functional system. I have a OpenMediaVault / minidlna server using NAS ARM board that only has 256MB of RAM, and it isn’t using all of it, and doesn’t need to swap.
