[KLUG Members] How much disk space do I allot for different distros ?

[Sanjay Chigurupati]

Hi,
I am thinking of allocating space for different distros on my 40 GB hard
disk at home.

a) Have a 4.5 GB for  XP ( dont flame)
b) plan on 1.5 GB for backup ( Important files like resume and other docs
in case I remove XP and put somethin else)
c) Debian woody - 10 GB ( Is this too much)
d) Gentoo version 1.4  ( 2 cds)  - 5 GB  (  Is this sufficient)
e) FreeBSD 5.1  ( 4 cds) - 6 GB
f) Open BSD 3.3 (1 cd) - 3GB  ( is this 2 much)
g) RH 9 - 7 GB ( is this 2 much) - plan to do some development for SANE
h) LFS  ( Linux from Scratch) - 4 GB

and  a common swap space of 512 MB  ( have physical RAM of 256 MB)


 Looks like I have already exceeded 40 GB.

Any suggestions?

Regards,
Sanjay

( I will add the distros slowly over time. plan to use GAG boot loader with
booter in root partition of each distro)
