Re: [PLUG] fedora core & vm
|
First, if you are going to install Fedora, why not use the latest?
Release 8 is current and 9 is due in two weeks. 5 is no longer
supported in any way.
Minimum specs for your VM should be based on what the box will be
doing. Running a GUI, 256 min / 512 preferred RAM. If you're just
using it for testing applications will no heavy load on it, 1 GB of RAM
should work. As for partitions if this is just a basic test system,
you can just put everything under one root partition ( / ). Say 20 GB
for / and 2*RAM = swap space should be fine.
Size it with more RAM if more than a few users will be on it at the
same time. If your going to be putting a bunch of apps to test on it
(apache, database, dev environment, lots of test data, etc.) increase
the size accordingly (40 GB, 60 GB).
