Well, time to cut to the bone...

Yay! My "new" winbook fx is within a truck drive away. Seeing a how its 
a 150mhz machine with 32 meg ram and 2 gig hd, I need to start thinking 
about how to set this up to be my school laptop. I know linux will 
install. Setting up power management, I can read up on it. The memory, 
that too can be worked around. But does anyone know how much space the 
"base" install for debian takes up? I was going to dual boot to dos(250 
meg). All I need is my development stuff(pretty much already included), 
the pcmcia package, and X. Well, I don't NEED X, but it would be nice. 
How much space does Gnome take up? Is it better just using twm? Any 
ideas? I ran RH 4.1 back in 97 on the exact same machine, and I was 
using X with no problem back then. Any reason I will run into problems? 
I'll probably install mozilla, xmms, and gnome, unless its too big. Some 
sort of simple office suite also, I guess.

Hey, it only cost me 71 bucks for it; it's hard to beat that for a 
school computer.
