Let's assume users have got a DVD burning device. Then the default setup of a SUSE 10.1 installation puts intermediate burning files into /tmp.
I have a DVD burner, 10GB space and no problems.
Which is normally a directory under /. So just for this very purpose we almost 10GB free space. Otherwise users will just fail when duplicating a double layer DVD.
You are talking about a dual layer DVD burner. Most people do not have a dual layer burner. <snip>
Therefore a "valid" configuration for a full desktop setup needs either a separate 10GB "/tmp "partition or at least a 16GB "/" partition. Anything else would get an ordinary user in trouble as soon as DVD burning comes into place.
So then please suggest how it should be calculated in your eyes. Also think that it should be workable on smaller HD's. Not everybody has a 250GB HD. houghi -- Nutze die Zeit.
