Re: Lack of HD Space On Classmate Netbook
The procedure Mark is talking about is removing the installation line from the reimaging .ini file that is responsible for creating the recovery partition. In fact, for teams with a 2009 classmate, this may be necessary this year to install the necessary software to run the Kinect. We had to do so to make everything fit.

By removing the recovery partition during reimaging, then updating fully, and installing all the necessary Beta software, we were left with a little under 2 GB of space.

Of course, you shouldn't be installing the entire Labview development suite on the classmate - that will take quite a bit of extra room.
