To expand on the subject line, I have inherited an Acer laptop on which I<br>
intend to install Linux.<br>
I think the machine spec should be OK for most linux distros...Core 2 duo<br>
T5600, 4GB, 120GB, Nvidia graphics.<br>
I am considering replacing the 120GB drive with an SSD, as it should<br>
smarten up the performance a tad and probably improve battery life a bit<br>
as well.<br>
Are there issues with running Linux from an SSD, that one needs to take<br>
into account when first installing/partitioning/whatever?<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
