Typical Disk Requirements

 Shown below are the results of several install sessions on my spare A2000. Note that Linux requires a certain amount of reserved diskspace to function normally and future package requirements will certainly be greater than the values shown here. These values represent the amount of space required after installation.

Motto: you will need at least 10..20% more diskspace than what I have shown here, and this doesn't consider any space for your own programs and/or data.
