I've had a little play this afternoon with Tiny Linux and it seems to =
install OK.

The only problem is I only have experience with newer versions of Red =
Hat, which does tend to lead you by the hand somewhat. As a result, I =
have only thus far installed it on a single partition and I know this is =
not good practice.

Can anyone suggest appropriate partition types / sizes for a 1Gb drive?

Cheers
Phil
