Ok I accually am going to put x-windows on my machine for some of my sighted friends to be able to use. How will this effect the memory needed? I will probibly be putting it on a seporate partition on meyc drive then for more room. -----Original Message----- From: speakup-admin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:speakup-admin at braille.uwo.ca]On Behalf Of Geoff Shang Sent: Saturday, March 30, 2002 11:09 PM To: speakup at braille.uwo.ca Subject: Re: Memory Considerations On Sun, 31 Mar 2002, Jared wrote: > All I have is a 4 gig drive that was what came with this.

I'm running out of space now, but that's with 3 years worth clutter on there as well (and this system supports 2 uers as well). So I'd definitely say yes, especially if you don't want Xwindows (which you probably don't). > Cood I then read off my > fat32 for stuff like music on the windows drive? Yep. > If I use x2 for a file > system on my c drive will it be possible to dule boot? Urrrr. I don't understand the question. Filesystems are on partitions, not drives. So you could have an ext2 filesystem and a fat32 filesystem on seperate partitions on the same drive.
