Got it installed on a 4GB "partition" with fossil and venti. The venti "formatting" took very little time compared to the actual installation of the distribution. My mouse sucks though, needs new logitech drivers that they've not released yet for Mac OS X Intel's and as a result I have no middle mouse button. That coupled with the inability to type either "\" or "|" makes this beta hard to use. The speed is excellent though. I'll likely give these guys some of my money... Dave
