well i tried out miniconda already. but, it stalls at the part where it finishing detecting the USB devices after downloading the images off the network. could it be that resources are still short and python can run on machines with 14 or 16MB RAM? how do i get around this problem? thanks in advance. ------------------------------------------- William Emmanuel S.
