I'd recommend that you use texlive installer (which, unfortunately installs precompiled packages) to install TexLive. I did that for myself, it is highly customisable. TexLive takes only 600 MB with nearly everything - without some *extra* fonts, sources and nearly all docs. I guess you can strip it to 200 MB or even less for your needs. -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
