The following is my configuration which did not required any changes: CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM) Duo T2350 1.86GHz Memory I upgraded to 2G (full capacity) Display controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS/940GML Express Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 03) Other then that I don't think it makes a difference.
Installation went smooth like a knife in dutch butter. I'm running emulated qemu machines developing and playing around with a lot of pleasure.
