Choosing the operating system sources plus full docs and utility binaries
in the install (this is the 3rd choice with a name something like `kernel
dev') will use roughly 69M [ignoring /usr/tmp needs] so maybe you can also
consider having disk 1 supply / (55M), swap (70M), and /usr (75M) for a
total of 200M. The 2nd disk will give you a large /usr/local or /home and
you probably won't be leaving much space "unused".
