No there is no problem with that. In fact for very old machines it may be easier if the new installer needs too much ram. I have one machine that started with an install of 2.0 and has upgraded ever since. Given your machine has 32M ram, that could be causing some issues. I think in a few cases the current installer might not work in 32M. Older ones certainly did. If you do the base install with 3.0 and then just upgrade it should be fine on that machine. I have a 486/66 wiht 48M ram that runs sarge perfectly, but I have never tried the sarge installer on that machine. It last had an install from scratch in I think 1998.
