This is not an advice I would give on the Debian wiki, since microSD
cards can be expensive.

The correct capitalization is microSD [1].

I re-installed Debian on my FR [2] and it takes 319MB as shown by `df
-h`, which means that you still have roughly 200MB for other software.
We are talking about a phone here, i.e. big applications like
OpenOffice.org will never be installed.

As a side note, I would prefer if the Debian wiki will stay as more
technical as possible.

Thx, bye,
