For LFS alone, no. A few years ago we checked it and determined the minimum size would be 1.3G, but that has probably grown. I've not tested it, but I suspect that you can get by with 2G fairly easily, but that doesn't account for any BLFS packages. The big package is glibc in chapter 6. http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/build-logs/6.6/core2duo/6.6-SBU_DU-2010-02-27.report > Would 5G be enough to build a new BLFS with smallish desktop, like > fluxbox, not a big GNOME or KDE? I have a similar system and the usage is 4.2G. It would be slightly smaller on a 32-bit system. 5.1M bin 3.5M etc 22M lib 2.2G opt 168K root 6.8M sbin 72K share 22M srv 1.7G usr 39M var -- Bruce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
