Hello, again,
I'm close to installing Ultimate Edition on a laptop and my new tower computer, mainly for demonstrating G/L via Ubuntu with all the available DEs and apps. But I want to be able to change distros if necessary without affecting my swap, home, WINE, or data partitions. (I keep my data on a separate hdd and use home only for temporary files.) So, my question is, how much space does Ultimate Edition 2.5 require/need for comfortable installation, that is, allowing plenty of room for its ongoing self-cleaning?
I'm assuming I won't have to add any app except the three or four Windows apps (one DOS, no MS program) I want to run on this. Do they all go into the WINE folder, or do some of their files go into various FS folders? I guess that a follow-up question (answering the first question very likely will answer this one) is, how much space do I need to have for WINE for these programs?
Come to think of it, I'd better ask this one, too: Is Ultimate Edition 2.5 too big, burdensome for an old Dell Latitude c840 w/ 2.0 GHz P4-M (400 MHz system bus), 1 GB DDR SDRAM (PC2100, 266 MHz), and a 40 GB ATA-100 hdd?
