[ILUG] Running Xwindow from terminal

[ILUG] Running Xwindow from terminal

Nothing!

I don't think you'll be able to set up an X-server with only a 200Mb disk
and you *must* have an X-Server running on the machine you want to export
displays to...

What is the spec of the machine?  If it's good enough otherwise, it might be
worth spending £50 on a bigger disk in the Buy and Sell and setting up a
proper linux system.

You can only read linux partitions on another linux box *when* it's running
Linux.  NT won't be able to serve the Linux partitions for you.
