As a standard installation needs 4 to 5GB, consider that 6GB is the minimum size and 10 to 12GB is recommended. More than 20GB is not needed. Perhaps an explanation: The system needs to use temporary and useful files in /tmp and in /var (log and spooling files). A good advice is to have at least 1GB free. -- Pierre Jarillon - http://pjarillon.free.fr/ Vice-président de l'ABUL : http://abul.org Microsoft is for computers what McDonald is for French gastronomy
