I have installed FC6 + Eclipse on a 5GB partition on an old Dell Inspiron 4100 laptop: 256MB of RAM, Pentium III, etc.
One can't argue with success but 5GB seems to small for an FC6 installation in general. In my mind 256MB ram is also marginal.
A matter of necessity, not preference. The Inspiron only has an 18GB hard drive and I needed to quickly put on Fedora to have some linux tools on my laptop. 5GB was all the free space I could squeeze out. And I'm saving up for a new laptop, so I can't see spending the money for either a larger hard drive or more RAM. But it seems to work fine for doing some C/C++ builds in Eclipse. Richard.
