Re: [tdf-discuss] LibreOffice deployment on Windows
Why not trying to set some folders to compressed (right clik - properties - advanced options), specially folders like OpenOffice/basis/help or OpenOffice/basis/share, works transparent for the users. And sometimes is quicker than read from disk, uncompress.Miguelngel.El 05/07/11 17:48, Alexandre Chevrier escribi:Hi, I just deployed LibreOffice on about 2000 computers to replace OpenOffice.org. I found a problem for some crappy netbook Windows XP with small hardrive... Even if I clean them up, I don't have enough space to install libreoffice (openoffice.org is already uninstalled). I would like to know how to create an new mst to add my existing settings and to remove base from the installation... maybe with a lighter installation will pass... I don't need to know how to create an mst, I just want to know what to edit to remove base from the installation. I can't find where are the settings to do what I want to do in the property table.

Maybe these netbook lack space to storeat the same time temporary files from uncompressing the LibO installer and installation files. Have you tried to connect the netbook to an usb drive before the installation and indicate this external DD as destination to decompress the installer ? I did that for my vm XP which has only a 4 Go virtual hardrive and it worked well.

RE: [tdf-discuss] LibreOffice deployment on Windows
That might make the difference. The Windows install files expand to 200 MB on disk, then the LO install itself has a 450MB footprint in C:\Program Files\. Getting the 200 MB onto an external drive (USB stick) should be no problem. In case you forgot, Also remember to empty the recycle bin of all accounts on the machine and you might want to check the Temp folders wherever they are on the Netbook. - Dennis -Original Message- From: Jean-Baptiste Faure [mailto:jbf.fa...@orange.fr] Sent: Tuesday, July 05, 2011 21:19 To: discuss@documentfoundation.org Subject: Re: [tdf-discuss] LibreOffice deployment on Windows Hi Alexandre, Le 05/07/2011 17:48, Alexandre Chevrier a écrit : Hi, I just deployed LibreOffice on about 2000 computers to replace OpenOffice.org.
