...to remember what you've done

OK, true confessions time.

I keep a supply of cheap notebooks and scribble while I work. (Creeps away in anoracky embarrassment.)

As far as I can see, my problems with Wubi were unrelated to the size of the installation folder - which I reduced to 5gb. A little googling suggested that it can be installed to a 4gb netbook hard drive, after all.

But I just haven't made friends with Wubi. Could be it doesn't really like Windows 2000, perhaps.

I may have a go at installing NBR to this computer - it's only a 27GiB hard drive, and W2000 is already taking up nearly 6 of that - might be interesting to see what the automatic partitioner does.
