I started with 500MB on my first install(2.1.6 I think it was). Every install after that was a reason to erode away my win-whatever. At present I have two machines: 386 450MB split evenly(+/-) between FBSD and DOS/Win3.1 Pentium - 2 Drives 814MB 30MB / 1036MB all /usr & /var I still want more room for FBSD! At least I have a subscription now that I can more easily try many different packages without laborious downloads :-) I tell you all, once you get yourself a CD set you'll never go back.
