At the moment im leaning towards a standard Xp install then cleaning it up after following the various guides on the internet. This way i think i should be able to achieve a circa 400mb install and have most of the xp functionality without too much hasstle. However this will be install 1 for me for a carpc so asking from the guys that have tried several methods.
Thanks andy
I just redid my whole setup with TinyXP rev04 and it works great.
Windows folder as of now is 350MB with huge improvement on performance and boot up times.
I got RR running great with bluetooth (installed widcomm 4), wi-fi, tons of usb devices, hibernation, verizon evdo card... couldn't be happier
Just make sure you install the latest video drivers for hibernation to work.
