Hi,

Hmmm. 1TB is only 500 of these sticks:
http://tinyurl.com/56tue (2GB memory stick)
These are already very small, so no doubt what you
said is going to happen. 

In fact, the VMWare-Oracle-LINUX trial totals only
about 6GB for the plug-and-play VM (docs say 8GB
because of all the other stuff included).

Quote from SUSE-Oracle-VMWare Distro:
MINIMUM SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS:
============================
- A Desktop or Laptop PC running Windows NT 4.0 6a,
Windows 2000, Windows XP or Windows Server 2003
- 1 GB of memory
- 8 GB of free disk space (FAT32 or NTFS) For Virtual
Machine. If you plan on populating the database with
information you will need extra disk space
- 100 MB For VMware Workstation software (FAT32 or
NTFS)
- A DVD Reader

Note: I called Redhat last week and theirs was not
ready yet. But, I was told they were working on it
for release soon. Maybe I'll walk over to their
HQ and see. ;-)


Regards,

Mike Thomas
