Okay you know that tablet I made? Well for some reason I can't get windows 98 to install to it and DamnSmallLinux isn't workingg either. if anyone knows of an OS that is small and can run on 480mb of ram and a Pentium 4 2.66 Ghz Dualcore CPU please send me a link. I really want to get this up and running as atleast an All-in-one PC.
The download preferably needs to be under 100mb my internet is really slow.

Good luck getting an operating system with touch support for less than 100MB. All I can recommend is Some sort of Linux distro such as Ubuntu since they have the smallest size. Even Linux Mint is 966MB.

Linux is your best bet. Maybe try Raspbian, the OS the raspberry pi runs on.

+1 on Rasbian.
Tiny core linux (best choice IMO)
