I am considering buying Intel's 4.0. I have heard that it takes about
100Mb of disk for the root+swap. Is this ture? Does that include /usr too?
I have two 80Mb drives; does that mean that I won't have enough space to
install 4.0?
If you have experience installing 4.0, and could comment on the above
problem, I sure would appreciate hearing from you!
"Thanks in advance"

Two 80MB drives should hold it fine (although you might want to install the base system, then add the second hard drive before installing the rest of the packages). -- Conor P.
