Will (does) Centos 6 require 512Mb of memory for the GUI install like FC14 or the lower requirement of FC13?
My ASUS EE 700 has ~490Mb of memory (vidoe steals some from the 512Mb base) and FC14 switches to text install and does not install any GUI, leaving the boot in test mode.
<snip> I will *not* make comments about how an install isn't running a game engine, and so *ought* to be able to run in an order of magnitude less memory, except for bloated, objectionably oriented programming....
X11 installer == game engine? I never use the GUI installer. It is quicker and easier to use the text/console based installer.
