Dear Michael, dear Minh,

I had strongly underestimated the HD-space consumption of a sage
server. (I didn't look into the reader ...) Man, it is huge!

After re-partitioning my drive I ran the installer in a command line
session, like Minh has tought me.

It took somewhat between 15 and 18 hours.

Now sage is running on that old notebook. You who developed it did a
great job.

(I am very impressed by that software. I am going to hold some
tutorials for the kids at my german high school how to use sage and so
to have fun with math. My plan is to tell them that there are only two
basic commands you need to know at the beginning, that is the TAB (to
complete the command you guessed might work) and after that the
question mark and shift-enter to look up the usage. Yesterday I found
a third and a very exciting one: "search-doc". I think this one is
going to shift sage far beyond the limits of maplesoft and wolfram.)

Thanks a lot.

Markus
