As I commented on above, the -m 1024 parameter specifies 1GB RAM for the VM, but Knoppix can run with less. I'm currently using machines with 8 or 16 GB RAM for such system administration, but I think most operations could be done with 4GB. (And I can't really see the sense in using machines with less as the main workstation today, but YMMV.)
