It's an old IBM laptop which does not boot from a cdrom. I'm planning on installing 7.3 when it comes. How much space does the normal installation take?
Boy. Guaging from 7.2, it's going to be a squeeze if you use SuSE's default package selection. Guys, I can get a fully-functional (if not integrated) KDE desktop system with tonnes of development tools and libs in under 400MB on other distributions; why is SuSE such a pig? ;) If I were you, I'd start with the "Minimum plus X" package selection, and then add whatever else you need from there (desktop environments, window managers, compilers, etc); following this procedure, it should work fine. I just did an install a few nights ago on a 1.2G disk this way. ===== -- -=|JP|=- Hit me! - http://www.xanga.com/cowboydren/ Jon Pennington | Debian 2.3 -o) cowboydren @ yahoo . com | Auto Enthusiast /\\ Kansas City, MO, USA | ICQ UIN 69 67 29 31 _\_V __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
