Hi List,
          Following on the recent thread about swap sizes I noted that 
the original poster was wanting to install Linux From Scratch on one 
of his partitions.
          These gentlemen have made LFS a lot easier

           They say that to get to KDE on a 800 mhz P111 will take 
about 14 hrs compiling. I would say the original poster will need all 
the swap he can spare !
             
                                                All the best,
                                                     John Duncan
