I am having a hell of a trouble doing so. I vLite as much as physically possible - but during installation it expands past the 3.5GB of the SSD and install fails.
A 7 lite I downloaded (legal - 30 day trial), installs fine, so somehow they have managed to strip it down enough. Obviously I am not licensed for this, so I still need to get my licensed copy on. Any help?
couldn't you just use your Windows 7 key on the lite version you downloaded?

Sadly no, the downloaded one is Ultimate, my key is HP. Plus it's riced out beyond belief and the install is for a client so no can do.
Use RT 7 Lite rather than vLite and see if it helps.
Will do. Another vLite attempt that I scraped every single mb out of is burning to a disc. Hopefully it will work..

And now the product key fails before one is even entered :v:
Ok, trying RTLite7
Why exactly are you trying to fit it onto a 4GB SSD?
Are you doing it only because you think it's "cool" or something?
Is it even a real SSD or just a flash drive/CF card/something along that line?
I had to use RTLite7 for my CR-48 to maximize all the space I could. I have 9GB space vs the 3GB I had with standard install.

...Maybe he has one of those old eee pcs with only 4GB of space on their SSD?

Wow I bet you feel cool.
FYI a client wants Windows 7 installed on her two Dell Mini 7's because she hates Ubuntu. Simple as.
Don't take it personally, I've had too many of those as the reason in the past and I was assuming you're just a typical case.
But seriously, is it a good idea? Even if you do manage to get it to fit, the end user will have practically no space to install anything else. Plus, the netbook will most likely run quite sluggish with Windows 7. If Windows is a must, I think XP would be the most suitable OS for those systems.
Snip, never mind, I probably don't have any idea what I'm talking about.
If it has a SD slot, just get a 32GB 10 class SDHC for it.
That's what I do for my CR-48.

And would there be a problem with that? If I only tried to do things when they were needed, I wouldn't be where I am today. Messing around and doing things out of the ordinary can be fun.
