No wonder. My first Linux machine was a 486DX33 with 8 MB of RAM and a 540 MB caviar hard disk. That machine took about 35-45 minutes to compile Linux 1.0.13. The AMD K6 233 I'm running now, with 128MB RAM and > 8GB of disk, can compile Linux 2.0.35 in about 7 minutes. I think you ought to look for a newer computer.
