Small footprint? So far, it appears you guys are talking about
200-300mb. That may seem small to people with 10gig harddrives,
but it's way too big for my 486-33 with 170mb HD. I reckon you
should be aiming for a base installation of no bigger than 80mb
(including X, wm and graphical browser).
Cheers,
Steven
