I believe the default install left around 500+Mb of free space on the EeePC 701.<br /><br />If you want to shrink it further, you could remove unwanted packages. Since I hardly do any document editing on my EeePC, I uninstalled openoffice, lots of graphics tools (ie GIMP, Dia, Inkscape etc) and audio tools (Banshee etc) got about 1Gb left over.Hanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14979804434768041826noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4613455571367806369.post-7836971894482277512009-07-11T02:15:09.899+08:002009-07-11T02:15:09.899+08:00Download is slightly more than 4G - I have the Eee...Download is slightly more than 4G - I have the Eeepc 701 4G model.

As commented by mattie, the wifi worked out of the box.<br /><br />This time around, I opted to do as minimal an install as practical. Hence, I chose to install with only xfce, YaST modules, firefox with Java and Flash plugins. I find that I usually use my EeePC for web browsing only.<br /><br />All up, it took only 1.5GB of hdd space. :)Hanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14979804434768041826noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4613455571367806369.post-15008166846999566682009-05-06T07:26:00.000+08:002009-05-06T07:26:00.000+08:00I did.
