Subject: Minimun hardware requirements innaccurate as documented
According to this link:
https://www.debian.org/releases/stable/i386/ch03s04.en.html ;
it states 512M RAM is the minimum required for gui desktop. However
in installing the 10.6 32bit livecd on a 32bit system with 784M RAM,
the installer refuses to install stating the minimum required RAM is
1G. I even tried this straight from the installer boot menu without
loading the desktop into RAM first, with the same results.
Please update your documentation.
Thanks-:)
Jim
