yes, it would be nice if this would get added to the wiki....
even though i would call it mini disk howto, as the apps selected there
(mozilla suite/openoffice) surely wont run below 128MB....

i woud suggest something like balsa or sylpheed as mailer and firefox
(or probably dillo for extreme small systems) as a browser. also the
office tools from the gnome suite (abiword, gnumeric) are way smaller
then openoffice.

there probably should be 2 or 3 different setups (i.e. for very small
systems (64-128) and middle sized systems (128-256)) 

btw, disabling some of the 6 virtual consoles in /etc/inittab saves
about 4MB of memory for each disabled one (google will show several
other things you can do to save mem in linux....)

:)
