Check this with the devs, I put a comment similar to this on the website and they asked me to take it down because it wasn't accurate anymore. The text based installer (or the desktop overall, not sure which) needs 256MB of RAM, just like the livecd. I'm not sure what the difference between the two CDs is, but I do know someone who couldn't use the live cd but could use the desktop OS once installed via the alternate CD, so maybe it caters to people with special hardware needs other than limited RAM. -- Matthew Nuzum newz2000 on freenode -- ubuntu-marketing mailing list [email protected] Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-marketing
