Thumb drive installation, minimum size

[P. Echols]

I plan on installing 8.04 on a thumb drive.[0] This will be a full, not a
"live" install. The purpose is to run a USB video converter, so it will
probably need swap space somewhere.  The data files that ate created will
go on a separate partition or USB drive that'll be mounted when needed.

The question is how large a thumb drive I need for the project.  Also
interested in other thoughts.

[0] The reason for using 8.04 is that the drivers for the hardware do not
work with recent kernel updates.  Since this machine will not have any
other function, I don't care that it cannot be updated.
