If you have sources that you are replacing that can be true. I think that 200MB free would be cutting it a bit tight. My user stuff is all on /usrx's. Two programs used up 2GB. I think truth will be somewhere between James comments and mine. A larger faster drive would be the safe way. BTW, I was up to %74 on my / drive when I replaced the 3.1GB with a 13.0GB and I had a lot more free space than you do.
