Hi,
I've been working on the concept of a minimum rule install. This
would be a text only install designed to provide a menu, file
management, text editing, email access, ftp, and internet browsing
on systems with small hard drives.
Devon reported a slinky install that takes 248 meg. PC 19 is a 486
with a 220 meg hard drive. Could unnecessary programs be trimmed
from this install so it would fit in 220 meg? What is the absolute
minimum size of the install without unwisely crippling the system?
Thanks,
Hairy Larry
