Why does it need that much hard disk space?

Hi Buddy,

Nope, you explained it very well indeed.  Now, care to take the next
step, which I am not knowledgeable enough to try?  Send a short list
of the things that are *really* needed in a Linux installation.

Lemme see if I can start.  

First, you need the kernel.  

then you need some kind of editor, VI Emax whatever, an editor.  

You'll probably want the C libraries for yourself, or for anyone
tinkering on your system.

You'll want Lynx and its attendant libraries.

You'll want the curses stuff too.

You'll want the alsa stuff for your sound card and its attendant
stuff.

You'll want a mailer, Pine, MUT or something.

You'll want the stuff for your network card if you have one or the PPP
stuff for dialup.  

That should do you, I think.  Have I forgotten anything, Buddy? 

Ann P.
