4mb of disk space won't get you must in linux or bsd.  With both that
will give you a kernel and a few file system utils.

Linux is a little smaller (not as much as is advertised by everyone
though), but I would tend to reccomend 386bsd to newbies because there
are so many books on bsd (and 386bsd is pretty much straight bsd4.3 with
some posix thrown in).  It also tends to be easier to keep up with, just
install a new patch kit when one comes out.  You don't have to deal with
a new kernel every 5 days or whatever.

The best idea is to always install both, play around, and decide which
one you like best.
