I'm currently testing Taroon 2 on a VMWare computer with 128MB of RAM. I remember reading somewhere that the minimums (for an Intel
type 32-bit system) is 64 MB min for a text based system, 128MB min for a GUI, and 256MB recommended for a GUI. I think it's
different for PCs on other CPUs, so Arjan could be referring to a different architecture.

btw, 64MB seems to work on VMWare for a GUI install; it seems to bork below this level. 64MB seems to be enough to open a GUI after
install - but not enough to run anything serious. But then again, the Red Hat numbers for RHL9 (shrike) were conservative as well.

I'm just hoping that someone could point me to the document.

Thanks,
Mike
