OK, that basically means it takes a 2 gig drive src mount, to be comfy.
Sans X and strip the source tree and it might still fit in 1 gig.
I picked up half a dozen 2 gig drives, in surplus, over the past
several weeks.... the ol' 4200 VAX will need them.....(:+}}...
We used to think RZ22's were door stops...
Now 1 giggers are fast becoming door stops!
Progress.....(:+\\......
