	Not a nice idea. I'm not sure this will work. LSD grows rapidly,
and requires more and more disc space.
	νΑΥ be, 3.x or 2.x or famouos 1.5 will run, but it is not a good 
idea too - poor early versions, with a lot of security holes and other
bugs.
	To be true, now sufficient HDD of about 1G costs less, then the
troubles You will have with installing to Your dick :)
	The other way is to try PicoBSD.
