Did you look here?

Thanks for responding, yes I read that. However, I did not know about it until after I updated the classmate because I was unaware that we needed more memory. As a result, the hard drive for the notebook says I only have about 10 gbs of memory stating that I only have .98 gbs free left. Is that normal? The problem is that I want to run Windriver on this, including the updates, and I need more memory space in order to install it.

I really could not say. We are using a separate computer for development so we had no need to optimize our drive space on the driver's station.

Good luck...

Ok, thanks for your consideration. If someone could tell me the maximum space on this netbook, that would be great.

Yes that is normal, if you did not follow the procedure that Mike linked. The easiest way to fix it would be to re-image again after completing the procedure.
