Shouldn't "Type: <code>zyx-liveinstaller</code>" be "Type: <code>sudo zyx-liveinstaller</code>"? [[User:David Kergyl|David Kergyl]] 17:59, 12 March 2010 (UTC)

* After installation completes, you may remove the LiveUSB or LiveCD, and continue using the newly installed system ''without rebooting''! This means that anything done with the system before, during, or after installation persists into the installed system;

== Mirabelle Space Requirements -- Need 8GB USB drive? ==
Tried to install as per instructions on 4GB USB drive but zyx-liveinstaller failed with the following (abbreviated) message:
"*Installer backend error*... target root size 3341520Kb is less than live root size 4194304Kb"
The important number is the 4GB! Can't get a 4GB root on a 4GB target disk!
Successfully installed on 8GB disk and Gparted confirmed that the root has 4.39GB used. I did install a couple of extra activities, but it still seems one needs at least a 4GB partition for the root.
Incidentally, Gparted reports only 28.23 MB used in /root after successful install.
Should numbers on page be changed accordingly?
