[comp.sys.next] Extended is free. Good.

Well, evidently no one was doing anything this weekend and so I must
have received 212 answers.  Thanks to one and all for the resounding
yes!

Next question.  Okay, so 2.x Extended is ~200M.  In your humble opinion,
does this mean I should get a 2,3,4 or X00 external drive?  Will, say,
300+105 internal be enough for an individual hacker?  I've played with
the machines but I've never had one alone long enough to make a guess.
And finally, would placing usr and /tmp directories and whatnot on the 
internal (while using the external as the boot drive) be at all difficult?
I got at least one message that implied that getting all the symbolic
links for the operating system might be hard.  I don't see why, but then
what the hell do I know?

Peace.
