Good luck on that one. If I had to guess, I'd say you probably don't have enough hard drive for a comfortable install. It's a guess, at best, as I haven't had the opportunity to preview, Redmond. Was this supposed to be a 'lean' install distribution? Curious, is this like Quake3 that has a Linux version, done by Loki? My Mandrake distro is currently using 1.4 gig on the basic root partition (alone) (everything, but the boot and swap partitions). Mind you, my install is rather 'heavy', eveything but the server apps (for a suggested install) from the download edition. I like to figure at least a couple of hundred megs for a swap partion, on top of that. I really don't know what the bare minimum swap would be for a server not running active video. Removing unneeded programs, saves considerable space on an install, of course. Personally, I wouldn't suggest a task like this for a Linux beginner, unless you have knowledgable help, close at hand. A lot of security is dependant upon shutting down un needed Linux services. You would want to do this anyhow. Note some game software will not congure at all if it doesn't see the video and sound support it needs. Sorry I couldn't be of more help.
