Was just wondering if its possible to move from
a standard installation, to the minimal installation (as defined by the 
install process).
Just looking to see how small I can get my installation.
So far I removed all html files (that alone was about 128M).
Currently Im using about 315Mb.
Looking for ideas on where to cut corners, hopefully to get in the 100M 
- 200M range.
I've read http://neon1.net/misc/minibsd.html, but that is too small (I'd
use it as a last resort if I think I need to go smaller).
Thanks for your ideas...
