Ha-ha. m0n0wall takes a different approach than some other software 
firewall packages that are installed on a hard disk - there's no swap 
space to make up for the shortage of RAM, and even the entire root file 
system is kept in RAM. Of course with swapping enabled there would be no 
problems running it with 24 MB or even less (I don't think you're 
running Win98 SE with 24 MB and no swap), but as m0n0wall is targeted at 
embedded PCs that do not have hard drives, that's no option here.
