Good Christ, no.

See http://www.rule-project.org to install Red Hat 8.0 on your machine,
or on similar machines with as little as 8MB of RAM.

Use text mode only, and what you'll have is a very stable box running
the latest software, and doing so at a quite reasonable speed. On this
kind of hardware, do not expect a GUI (X Window) to run reasonably fast;
those are mostly designed for recently-bought hardware.

But text mode will move along just fine; and besides, you really want a
server to have the tightest security possible and the GUI will somewhat
increase the efforts you need to expend in order to keep the box secure.
