From my point of view, instalation could be more scalable, minimal could be more minimal. This is not a big problem for me, I will run W95 on my old pc as I did. I was only suprised how big modern FreeBSD is. Is it necessary? I like new programs, more options, but I would like to have an option to add them only when I need them. if you need something that minimal, look for picobsd or minux. the smallest hd i've ever used freebsd 4.x on was an 850meg on a 486/133.. i'd get a p1-100 with a little more ram. people throw them away everyday --- doug reynolds | the maverick | [EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-questions in the body of the message

I wouldve bet the minimal install would fit in 200 megs.. i have a minimal install (the 'minimal' distribution option from the insaller), along with these packages: autoconf213-2.13.000227_5, lcdproc-0.4.3, libgnugetopt-1.2, libtool-1.3.4_4, lsof-4.65, m4-1.4_1, netcat-1.10_1, poptop-1.1.3_1, rsync-2.5.5_1, trafshow-3.1_1, tripwire-1.2, ucd-snmp-4.2.5_2 still only takes up 142 megs.
