I have my order in for a 105 mb slab. I also ordered the complete OS distribution on floppies. I did this so that I have a clean backup copy as well as all of the software available to use and put on (a soon to be acquired) external SCSI drive. Since the $$$ for the external SCSI are not available at this time, what software can I kill on the basic distribution to get room for IB/ compilers/debuggers/editors/etc that are on the extended distribution that I need for developing. What apps/utilities are you using to develop now, what do I need, what will be nice, what is essential, etc??? What are the sizes of all the apps/files in the OS distributions? I will post a summary if enough interest is shown. Thanks Roder - trying to cram 275 meg in a 105 meg drive :-)

Instead of saying what *I* use daily, I thought that the following list might prove more useful. The standard disclaimers apply: this is taken from my own system (with a 660 MB drive), and anything can change in the final release of NeXTstep 2.0. --- 60479 LocalApps 123490 LocalLibrary 1762 NextAdmin 12717 NextApps 14088 NextDeveloper 1016 /NextDeveloper/Apps 10544 /NextDeveloper/Demos 2527 /NextDeveloper/Examples 71256 NextLibrary 2 /NextLibrary/Bookshelves 23835 /NextLibrary/Documentation 3 /NextLibrary/Fax 2083 /NextLibrary/Fonts 1675 /NextLibrary/Images 10523 /NextLibrary/Literature 1864 /NextLibrary/Mathematica 777 /NextLibrary/Music 4 /NextLibrary/Packages 30441 /NextLibrary/References 48 /NextLibrary/Sounds 75773 Users 2197 bin 3418 lib 696 odmach 22771 private 416 /private/adm 10 /private/dev 579 /private/etc 124 /private/spool 796 /private/tftpboot 338 /private/tmp 20505 /private/vm 696 sdmach 67927 usr 3543 /usr/bin 7028 /usr/cl 3875 /usr/dict 2439 /usr/etc 83 /usr/filesystems 3200 /usr/include 26367 /usr/lib 5597 /usr/local 3449 /usr/shlib 50 /usr/standalone 6210 /usr/sybase 1411 /usr/template 3733 /usr/tex 1062 /usr/ucb --- Hope this helps... -Declan -------------------------------------------------------------------- Declan McCullagh / NeXT Campus Consultant \ declan@remus.rutgers.edu --------------------------------------------------------------------
