You can use a drive of up to 2 Gb without partitioning, and even a larger one if you divide it into partitions. System 7.6 support HFS+, so if you get a *really* large drive, you can cover the entire disk space with the second partition, even if it's more than 2 Gb in size. The bad news is that the 'boot' partition (the one that contains the System folder) is limited to 2 Gb in all classic Macs.
As far as I know, 8.1 was the first that supported HFS+. It would be quite possible to put 8.1 on an LCIII though ;)
I've done it and with enough RAM it's quite nice. I've lately used later Mac OSes so the little things like context menus and spring-loaded folders are nice.
