Hi jdd,
Tell me, does this happen on text or graphical mode? And how many partitions
do you have?
In case you haven't tried the text mode, please do so.
of course in text mode :-).
what gave me problem is that the ram requirement get higher
at each new distribution. I installed 9.* with no problem
with as low as 45Mb on an old computer, but needed 32Mb more
for 10.0 and couldn't install 10.1 with 128Mb. That was a
laptop, so I had time before I could get more ram (for free,
given the no money value of the computer).
At present time, there are lot of nearly free computer and
lot of people (even in Europe) that can't afford a new
computer, not to speak of the many people in China or India
or Africa...
So I'm pretty sure there is interest for low profile distro.
SUSE is very interesting in this respect, because yast is
nearly as complete in text mode as in graphical mode, and I
hope this will continue - even on a comfortable server, I
have no graphics installed :-).
And I have already seen that the problem is mostly at
install. After having installed the system, even KDE run
quite well on 10.0, P233 and 80Mb ram.
