Ok I got persistent running on a 1 gig memory stick, granted it should be on a four gig stick. I have three sd cards all 2 gigs a piece but they have maps on for my GPS that I would like to leave them how they are.

So out of the gig, after install there were 200 mb left, I enabled universe and that dropped it down to about 150. By the time I added simple-ccsm, Emerald, and Fusion-icon, I am down to about 84 mb.

So yeah first of all message to myself get a 4--8 gig card but is there anyway I can use my Ubuntu install on hard drive to run programs already there. I tried it via accessing programs via my desktop and also via /usr/share/applications but it seems the only programs available to me are ones in common that HH and GG share. .

Another weird oddity is is that my usr folder on my HH install on USB is over 1.5 gigs and it is only a gig memory stick.

Also is there an easy way to delete all the games that come with HH as I will never play them and that would free up quite a bit.
