The openSUSE live CD does NOT need 1GB of RAM. I have a six year old Athlon XP machine with 512 MB RAM of which some is used for graphics. I downloaded the 11.2 RC2 32 bit KDE live CD. The live CD ran well and I later installed from the live CD and had no trouble at all doing so. http://linuxformat.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=80637#80637 johnk Tue Nov 10, 2009 3:00 pm http://linuxformat.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=80637#80637
