      Hi all, i will install this beautiful release on a fanless box for a production environment (firewall+vpn)..
      I would like to install FULL version on a DOM (disk on module) as storage, but i have to disable swap partition..
      well, if I put 512Mb RAM on the mobo.. what applications will not work? I've read some issues for ntop, but i won't use it…

      thanx in advance

        The swap partition is optional. If you put enough ram in the box you won't need it. Of course enough ram depends on load and used packages.
