Okay,

My external is another 60 mb, however I could go into that external drive 
case and replace the disk inside with a 160mb disk I have in another 
computer. Is 260mb enough for BSD, a web server and some programs etc? 
(Excuse my pun) Also, could you give me a suggestion about just how big I 
should make each of these partitions. Thanks!
