How do I dump the classic system folder.   I tried to trash the folder
and received a warning to the effect that it was a file necessary for
the system.  I apologize for not having the exact error message but I
do not have access to the computer again until next week.

Between languages and the architecures that I removed (ARM, G5's and
Intels)  we only gained about 260M.   But we are now up to 5.4 gb free
on a 55 gb drive (it was down to 1.12 gb free when I started.

Thank  you for your help - Marty
