List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: Redhat is pretty large simply because it includes so much software standard. If I were going to use a 1GB hard drive, I'd either install a *very* stripped down Slackware or Debian. In fact, although I am a Slackware user, I'd say Debian is your best choice for a very tight space since it tends to install very little by default. Any of those versions of Linux can be put in a small space, but with Redhat or Slackware, you would have to do a lot manually. Gee, I remember when the 1GB hard drives first came out. I actually said out loud "who will ever need all that space?"
