F21 Workstation System Requirements - Storage

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



Hi all.

I did a netinstall of F21 (it worked) and the resulting installed
system was around 4GB.

So, 4GB for base system, plus 2GB for updates (there are a lot of them
during the lifetime of the product), and 4GB for extra headroom (user
apps, content) - that comes out as 10GB minimal.

So I'd say 10GB minimal, 25GB recommended, standard "more is better"
clause, and maybe add something about the fact we come with "batteries
included" - ie. we have a full office suite and such, to justify the
space needs.




For the record, the biggest packages we install by default are:

252MB libreoffice-core
108MB firefox
97MB java-1.8.0-openjdk-headless
76MB webkitgtk4
68MB PyXB

There's probably some room for minor optimization, for those who care
about the live image size (I care, but trimming it is hard now that we
ship with so many stuff "we can't do without). I don't think we can do
much to reduce the final installed size - I think 10GB minimal is
reasonable.
