Hi there... i have Asus Eee Pc 1011CX model
- Intel Atom N2600 1.6GHz
- 320GB hard drive
- 1GB permanently soldered RAM
- Intel GMA 3600 graphics
I tried using Q4OS before this (2 months) and it run quite ok for this netbook. Just imagine with just ONLY 1GB of RAM, this netbook can be running again. Atleast it can last last for maybe a year or two, maybe.
So, with this spec is it possible to run Quark OS?
Thank you

example.....
i tried using peppermint 32bit, but while installing the system need 2gb of ram.
bodhi linux 32bit, able to install, but slow when running.
Please do assist me....thank you in advance...

Quarkos is released in 64bit Plasma and Trinity variants. If you have 2G of RAM, we would suggest you to install the Trinity version. Plasma version would work too, but it would be close to the HW limits. Trinity version is much lighter and should be much snappier.

Yes it's definitely possible. Quarkos has a bit higher requirements, nontheless they are not significantly higher.
Some notebook have 64 bit microprocessor but firmware (UEFI) is 32 bit, then you have to use Q4OS 32 bit.
Could you atleast give me some hint?
32bit or 64bit?
ram requirement?
hdd space?

I'll stick with Q4OS since my netbook doen't meet the requirement.
By the way thanks for answering my question... cheers from Malaysia
