All,

I've been ... er, diddling with an installation of FreeBSD 4.3 for a little while \
now. Have much more experience with Debian Linux, which I have on the same machine, \
but I very much like what I have found in FreeBSD.

So I hope to advance beyond the diddle stage soon.

ANYhoo, I have an older laptop, a Toshiba Tecra 740CDT, and have been thinking of \
removing the Win98 install and replacing it with FreeBSD. The issue: the HD is only \
2gig. Is that enough space for a decent FreeBSD install? How much space should I look \
for if I get a replacement for the HD on this laptop?

BTW the one FreeBSD/laptop compatibility page I've looked at makes it sounds as \
though this is a good match for the OS. If anyone has any specific experience with \
this model I'd love to hear about it.

Thanks,

Glenn Becker
