How many Disk space for the Whole System ( Install all packages ) ?
    

You can do a *minimum* text-only install in just about one gig.  I'm not
sure about the whole thing, but you probably don't want everything if
you're concerned about disk space.

  

I just open the file from CD Disk1 ( file:///D:/RELEASE-NOTES-en_US.html ) :

6.3.1.2. Hard Disk Space Requirements

The disk space requirements listed below represent the disk space taken up by Fedora Core 6 after the installation is complete. However, additional disk space is required during the installation to support the installation environment. This additional disk space corresponds to the size of /Fedora/base/stage2.img on Installation Disc 1 plus the size of the files in /var/lib/rpm on the installed system.

In practical terms, additional space requirements may range from as little as 90 MiB for a minimal installation to as much as an additional 175 MiB for an installation that includes nearly all the packages. The complete installed packages can occupy over 9 GB of disk space.

Additional space is also required for any user data, and at least 5% free space should be maintained for proper system operation.

So, I think 10GB Disk space for install all packages is ok ?
