I have an old 400mHz Dell with a 20G hard drive and 125M ram. Can I install and run CentOS on it?

CentOS 5 requires 512MB for installation due to building package dependancy trees. Once installed it will *run* with less, of course, package dependency issues can still arise afterwards.
I have one box running CentOS 5.2 with 384 MB of RAM. I did the graphical install on it, as on the 2 boxes with 512 MB of RAM.
