640MB memory for remix

[Danishka Navin]

Hi,

I just installed a Fedora 15 based remix and it asking for 640MB of memory
for i386 release.
but this was not appear when I build the same when F15 beta was available.

Btw, There is no "Install to Hard Disk" icon in the Desktop.

Thanks,

The memory requirement should drop for F16.

I believe it should show up in favorites if you are using gnome.
For other desktops you may need to do some work to get one for your remix.

As per our web site minimum memory requirement is 768 MB.

I think we must revert the release notes.

Download Requirements

- 400 MHz Pentium Pro or better processor (comparable AMD, Cyrix, and VIA
   processors also acceptable)
   - At least 768 MB memory (RAM), 1 GB recommended for best performance
   - 10 GB disk space / storage

But acording to the release notes.....

- Recommended for text-mode: 200 MHz Pentium Pro or better
   - Recommended for graphical: 400 MHz Pentium Pro or better
   - Minimum RAM for text-mode: 256 MiB
   - Minimum RAM for graphical: 384 MiB
   - Recommended RAM for graphical: 512 MiB
