Sasa, you should consult the FC3 and FC2 release notes for recommended 
system requirements.

 From what others have posted you know that a system with 128mb ram will 
run FC3 with a gui setup but more memory is recommended.  FC3 release 
notes suggest a minimum of 256mb.  A boot disk is not availble for FC3 
since a floppy cannot hold every thing needed.  To install FC3 easily, 
your system will need a CD or DVD drive, an internet connection 
(preferably broadband) with the means of installing FC3 on your (remote) 
system, or you can search the list archives for workaround methods that 
have documented here.  If you want a gui system with relatively limited 
memory, you might want to consider installing Xfce as opposed to Gnome 
or Kde.

Hope this helps.
