I have 1TB space + more in this machine. For a reason Ubuntu 14.04.3 took it´ś place in the lower and made it´s nest in there for a while and not there where it now exists. Would You like to have some kind of a spelling about the pc´s I have via email? That could be usefull in the future as time goes by. Now this is working and that´s enought to me as a user crazy wonderings i still do have.

For example, a netbook with an 8 GB SSD will work well" mean? 8 GB is less than 5 GB? There's just the hint "although there wont be much room for saving stuff directly onto the drive so cloud storage services could help a lot", but what does it exactly mean. </pre> </blockquote> <pre wrap="">it means that after installing your OS will already occupy 4-5GB ... so you have 3GB spare space... if you now work with the device for a year or two your space goes pretty low ... due to the nature of deb based upgrades you need to download a lot of stuff on an upgrade (note that the wiki does not talk about upgrades or the space needed at all, only about installation requirements) and need even more space for unpacking the packages etc etc ... to make a proper upgrade on such a device you should move the personal data to an external disk (or cloud storage) to obtain the needed space. one of the reasons snappy exists are btw exactly these issues ... snap systems (will) use squashfs deltas against the readonly os snap and only need a fraction of space (OS upgrades are also a matter of miinutes, not hours and you can completely roll back to the former install in case you notice issues) ciao oli</pre> <fieldset class="mimeAttachmentHeader"></fieldset> </blockquote> </body> </html>
