Hi,

I consider buying FreeBSD (I've got Yggdrasil Linux now). I'd like to
mount gcc/g++, Emacs, X Window, PPP and/or SLIP, elm and tin, but I've
got 120MB HDD only. I've looked at both FreeBSD and Walnut Creek
sites, but I couldn't find how much space I need for my requirement.
All I found is that minimal configuration eats 60MB. But what I get?
How much space do I *really* need? Thx for advice and help.

Cheers,
Piotr
