Yes, that is about the only way you will get this to work on that
system.

Yes.

You will have a 2.6 kernel.  Since you won't be loading many of the
additional applications (GUI and other services) it won't look much
different from other linux systems in text mode.

You should have better hardware support but with the system you have
much of that is not even required.

Just don't expect that box to be a screamer.  :)

But if all you are doing with it is PDC work it should hold up unless
you have thousands of clients.
