Pardon me - OS/2 is on a 400MeB partition, with 119MeB's free. That
partition includes such extras as TCP/IP 4.1, HPFS386, and Fixpack 12
(which appears to add a few megs to your installation), and a 32MeB
swapfile.

The partition started out as 500MeB's, but when I saw that I had well
over 200 free, I reduced it to give my apps more space.

I've also had Warp4 installed on a 270 meg drive, with space left over
for other applications. Just don't select such frivolous things as extra
backgrounds, the games, etc..
