What are the minimum requirements?  An absolute minimum of RAM is 46mb. TC won't boot with anything less, no matter how many terabytes of swap you have.
Microcore runs with 28mb of ram.
The minimum cpu is i486DX (486 with a math processor).

A recommended configuration:
Pentium 2 or better, 128mb of ram + some swap

That is for Tiny Core
MenuetOS
KolibriOS

I forgot to mention. Your gear is so old. You need to look into the kernel 2.xx range also probably.
My IBM 390E ran good on a 2.xx kernel series using AntiX.
