=Install OS=
Use [http://mirrors.kernel.org/fedora/releases/12/Fedora/i386/iso/Fedora-12-i386-netinst.iso fedora 12 i386 net install] to install a base os.  I did the install with 256mb of memory installed and it gave me a very basic system install.  I am not sure if this is the same installed state you would have if there was > 256mb of ram.

=Create cltbld user=
As root:
 useradd cltbld
 passwd cltbld
