Attempting to install KDE has been nothing but an experiment in frustration for me. Every time I go to untar the KDE archive onto the root of my MMC-booted 2006 OS filesystem, I run out of space before all the files unpack. I really don't get it. I should have more than enough room on my 1.25gb partition. I'm thinking that the issue is really where the KDE.tar is. I put the file on a 750mb partition on the same card. Do I need space on the partition where the source file is? But I have another question that I am more interested in anyway. Can I perform this complete process on my desktop Linux box? I recall hearing something about unpacking a FIASCO image and setting up a boot mmc without even touching the 770 (aside from installing the boot menu, of course), but I am not really sure if this is possible. If it is, I assume it would be a rather trivial task to then unpack the KDE tar. I apologize in advance if i'm just spewing complete crap, mainly 'cause i'm just going from a rather vague memory .
