Re: Minimal ROMs to run Android, do we have any here?

Not saying I know the answer, I just thought it was a safe assumption since the numbers were roughly the same.
i think that 70-90mb free is a default "cushion" set by whoever made up the Xandroid ports.. i run WIN95 on my TP2 and it boots of my SD just like Android does.. but it only has a 12MB default on it.. yet i have over 150MBs free on my device and about 4.5GBs left on my SD card.. so somewhere, someone set a "mimimal default level" to make sure you alsways have room..

maybe Xandroid is the same way... im pretty sure no matter what ROM were running itll always say we have somewhere between 70-90mbs of free space on Xandroid...someone with a different stat, and a screenshot, would be great
