HD Install :: RAM usage

Hey

I made a HD-Install and think it works great.

Got a 266 Celeron with 374MB SD-RAM.

How do I now manage to make DSL save some RAM.

When Fluxbox starts up it already uses over 92% of the RAM Space and leaves the SWAP totally out.

Is there a way to change that especially because i'd like to use OOffice and that would be too much for my RAM-Space.

you should have plenty ram for OOo

Before you installed DSL, did you have DSL booted to ram? Its probably better if you just ran it from cd. I had a pentium with 200 mhz and 64 megs of ram run OOo (incredibly slow, but it ran).

i doubt that would have made a difference, hdinstalls don't use the toram option anyway.

did you activate the swap partition? some information on swaps can be found here
