I don't know conectiva, so I'll let Michael or anybody else give a
definite answer. Some random considerations to stimulate the
discussion:

The latest announce on http://distro.conectiva.com/projetos/24/ is
almost two years old, which version of that distro are we talking
about? 

What are its normal install requirements?
