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know that it's out of date.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.
