I think you can right-click the drive and theres a nice little tickbox there somewhere. Or it might be in the recycle bin options...Originally Posted by Arche
I use TweakUI for XP to remove the low disk space warning, I don't know the exact registry key it modifies, though you could probably Google for it
I always install TweakUI, so I just used that.
For 90% of the world, that's not a disadvantage, because they don't have the time to learn Linux.
Yamaneko IS using Linux (see also: first post), which is why I said it. If Linux wasn't involved, then I'd say use NTFS, sure. Not much reason not to.
Well, I'm actually downloading the Minimal Live CD right now, but I should be ready to install by tomorrow morning and have everything setup (if I don't mess anything up) by tomorrow night.
Isn't NTFS highly protected by MS? Or so I've heard.
No more protected than anything else, meaning to say it's a big secret how it all works and people have to guess. Being able to read other filesystems would be beneficial too, for example if MS had any support whatsoever for ext or reiserfs, but do you really expect MS to care about customers? They no longer have a reason to care, since they own 90% of the world, as Bleys said.
One day for a Gentoo install is a generous estimate, especially for your first install.
My first install took just over 2 hours.
EDIT: First succesful install, that is. But I think the pooched one was because I was using the wrong iso.
Including X? How? Did you use binary packages or distcc? Are you running some kind of supercomputer? It still takes me over an hour just to compile X, and I have a 2.6 GHz machine.
Maybe Bleys is just running X alone. There's a GUI?
Including KDE. Your computer must be gimped because it wasn't on a terrific machine (sub 1-GHz, IIRC), and it was behind a proxy.
2 hours to compile KDE on a sub-1-GHz machine? That's extremely unlikely, going by my own experience and the experiences of countless others I've talked to. Unless you used binary packages or distcc, like I said.
