Two questions:
1) Does this version allow for separate root and usr partitions (since 
most stuff is in /usr, I would think that a 50 MB root partition would be 
large enough)?
2) How much stuff are you installing?  I think that the base package 
still fits within 50 MB, although I could be wrong.

I should be able to update the above this weekend.  Thanks for letting me 
know that it's out of date.

Later.
