Actually I don't really need spare partitions. Only need them if you want to test the system that I'm putting together. Would only need like 500 mb of drive space or so for the bbuilding and then what ever you wanna give to test it out. I'm about half way done building mine so if anyone wants to offer some help that'd be cool. Reason why I need bandwidth is because the sources are about 70 mb and mostly I need processor speed because a few things that need to be compiled take like at least half an hour on my fastest machine. thanks.
