partitioning
well, someone told me not to do the auto-partitioning, so i did the disk druid or whatever its called
i have 2 3gig hd's, hda and hdc. i setup the whole of hda with one 3gig partition mounted as '/' and setup hdc as 512mb swap, and the rest '/home' my machine still runs slow as hell, what have i done wrong? i takes about 20 seconds just to open up mozilla, and im using a P3 with 256mb ram. any comments? |
well first off, mozilla can be a bit of a hog...
second what windowmanager/desktop are you using ? if KDE or Gnome, those can be hogs too. and third, how many services or processes are you running ? try to eliminate some if possible, like for example: httpd for webserving, if your not going to be serving a website, eliminate that process.. and so on for any others you won't be using. |
