Hey aprelium...how big is the database for these forums? it must be pretty big, seeing as how there are thousands of posts and users.

Do you ever think of pruning posts that are a few years old?

I wouldn't think so, since these are supposed to be a collection of help topics, so deleting some would get rid of some other topics that might just get asked again.

hc2995,

We don't have (yet) storage problems. Our server's hard disk is only 10% full. ;-)

I would think about 80gb. Linux + MySQL + Abyss + PHP + DATA doesnt equal a whole lot.

It's a 80 GB. :-) The system and all the sofware we use does not take a lot of space (in comparison with an equivalent Windows setup).

For windows I could do all that in about the same, possibly less.

XP fresh install is about 1.5GB
PHP, MySQL, Abyss is about 40mb
Data is about 1gb max

I was able to install DSL and run a web server (including the O/S) from my USB-stick. That should beat both Windows and whatever Aprelium is running on their server.

DSL takes about 50 MB. Here's a screenshot.

it could be done with a stick less than 1GB pretty easily. I can do that with my 512MB stick. DSL, like its name implies, is damn small.

your usb mouse doesn't work? hmm...mine worked fine when I tried dsl. I think I remember reading though that for some mice you had to download some driver. I'll help you try and find it.

QEYMU? how do i do that? I just plug the drive in, restart, press F12, enter my BIOS password, then do DSL xsetup and go from there.
