Hello!

Welcome to Linux Lite. If a search doesn't quickly reveal any answers you need that may be buried here somewhere, just go ahead and ask for help.

While I figure out the finer points of a UEFI install and deal with several Windows 8.1 partitions, I'm running LL 2.0 on a 16 GB class 10 SD card. I'm wondering if all the partitions Dell created for this thing are REALLY necessary. I don't recall other machines needing so many!

Except for Bluetooth (which I need to refer back to earlier work documented on here to fix), everything worked 'out of the box' on this install. Once more, kudos to the development team.

It's somewhat sluggish, but that may be due to having 4 GB RAM and only 1 GB of swap on the SD card. Once I back up my 64 GB USB stick elsewhere, I may try running it there instead, to see if I get a boost in performance.

For now, I just want something I can 'play with' to help answer questions here. It's become too much of a hassle to keep switching machines all the time...
