You said Desktop, right? The Pentium M series is for laptops.
RAM will be fine, as you will utilize a Swap partition as well. General standard 'rule' is to have a swap twice the size of your physical RAM, up to 2 Gigs. Will this be dual-booted with Windows?
You cannot have just one partition, the least you can have is two, one for /Root, and one for /Swap. If you want, you can also set up a /Home for all your files. The benefit of that is you can keep your files if you ever reinstall.
Other than that, just pop in the CD, let it load, click Install, and let it do it's thing
It's a guided process, so you shouldn't have any problems.
