Linux install tips/usage tips for a newbie 😉
any suggestions helpful. trying to install on a Sparc Classic w/o success,
from my other thread:
"ok, now i have linux install issues
keeps termin install after it formats/partitions the hdd
starts install from cd-rom and then partitions hdd and BAM, exception and sends kill signals. why is there a limit on the partition size also? i want a 100Mb swap or so and the rest for the system, why can't i do that?"
":i have a 2.xxGB hdd now, why can't i partition it to 100MB swap and the rest to use?
it will only let me have 100 swap, 1024 boot, and remaining other partition. cant i just have 2, one for swap, the other for boot/os/etc... "
