that large eh?
Create swap if not done already
Code:
sudo mkswap /dev/sdxx
Mount swap
Code:
sudo swapon /dev/sdxx
replace the sdxx with your drive stuff that corresponds to the drive on your laptop when you boot from usb
Don't waste your energy trying to change opinions ... Do your thing, and don't care if they like it.
