  1. Hay Man!
    You say “Google Chromium OS”… But the site pointing to download says :
    “Chrome OS is not related to Google. Service provided by SUSE Studio.”
    Also, Google yet to announce the launch of “Chrome OS”. So I think you should not mention OS from Google..

    OR am I wrong????

  2. I’d like to install it in my PC directly. But before downloading i want to know which filesystem it uses. Does it uses linux type ext3 filesystem with a separate swap partition? or a FAT/HPFS/NTFS filesystem. Will it run in intel D/C 1.6Ghz and 2GB memory?
