sorry if this is a repeat post, but i could not find a satisfactory answer on the forums. a friend of mine has an OLD computer and was wanting to play around with linux on it. the problem is that he has a 1.5 GB HDD. any suggestions on how to partition this drive into /root, /home, and /swap and what distro of kubuntu to use? thanks...

Re: quick small HDD question
1.5? Man, that's small. While an experienced person might be able to get it all on there okay, if he's new he'd be better served using a custom distro like Damn Small Linux. That distro's so small you can even load the whole thing up into the ramdisk and not even need a hard disk drive at all! -
Re: quick small HDD question
I would also suggest Puppy Linux. Either way, I think 1.5GB is way to small for Kubuntu. For most purposes, 8GB is minimum, at least from what I've seen others say and do.Comment
