So if I'm not going to use this computer for anything else, I should
format the hard drive with ext3?

If this is really going to be a dedicated machine, I'd say so.

Do I do that from the SlimCD? Would
you recommend that I partition the hard drive in any way.

I'd recommend reading the "Frugal Installation How To" (http://tinyurl.com/7jx63). Just keep in Mind that SlimCD is about double the size of DSL. You'd therefore rather assign 120MB for the first partition where the image is installed.

I did not configure a swap partition with my 512MB RAM. Basically you'll need that small primary partition for the image plus a second big one, where you'll store settings, music files etc.

And by the way - thanks for your work! You and all the others here do a
fantastic work!

I'm happy SlimCD turned out to be useful for other users, too. First I thought it would mainly become a demo cd, but there seem to be quite a few installations out there :-)
