Software Install Size

I'm going to install the software on my memory-constrained laptop, and I'm wondering how much space is needed on the disk to install the Labview software, Windriver, and the corresponding updates. Does anyone have an approximation?

Re: Software Install Size

I believe around 200-300 MB max.

That includes Labview? I thought I remember all the Labview tools taking up quite a bit more.

From last year's documentation, http://usfirst.org/uploadedFiles/Rob...em_R ev_A.pdf, 2.4gb. Tommorow, we'll find out what it is for this year's version.

But that is including the OS, without the OS, the documentation and libraries and programs total around 200 MB

15 MB for Documents
99MB for Labview
50MB for Library
No more than 35MB for Windriver (I have netbeans)

What the 2.5 GB referred to was the size of the Classmate "Reflashing" software. That included all the labview, libraries and development software and most importantly, pre-configured version of Windows 7. But from the sounds of it, he just wants the software.

edit: my mistake. the 99MB is just for the UPDATE

Here's what I did. sizes is a script that uses du to find the size of each file in the directory.

It looks like there is 500MB of examples, but still.

EDIT: and isn't windriver another 2.5 GB? That's what I heard

Re: Software Install Size

My "National Instruments" folder takes up around 2.1 GB, but that's without any robotics stuff, so I'd budget some space for that too.

The kit includes a USB stick with the very latest version of LV, 2011.
