Thats a tough one.

When I prepared a minimalist 386 as a router for two dedicated ppp
lines, we had 386/40, 5 MB of RAM, 40 MB of some old MFM disk.

I "just installed", using 30 MB for / and 10 MB for swap; then installed
etc10 (later etc11) and bin10 (later bin11). we had about 10 MB left for
logfiles.
