@nollipfsense

hello, Thank you very much. I did not see that page before.

Specs says:
64-bit amd64 (x86-64) compatible CPU
1GB or more RAM
8 GB or larger disk drive (SSD, HDD, etc).

Perfect.

Yeah it will run in less than that if needed. 512MB RAM and 4GB drive is probably the least I would attempt. You would be very restricted in terms of running packages in that though.

@josephchrzempiec
I think some important info is missing.

1:
Make sure the netcards are supported

2:
Get Intel netcards if possible (best support)

@bingo600 Hello, You are correct, I do have capatable equipment. I'm Just trying to see what was the Minimum hardware for cpu, memory and hard drive space. But network cards are important as well.
