That is _very_ small for getting Linux to run on the board, odds are
it's impossible.  You will need a lot of experience in order to achieve
this, I recommend using a board with at least 4Mb of ram in order to get
things working at the least.

I suggest doing some basic research on what boards and sizes of systems
that people have gotten a M4 running Linux on first.

good luck!
