I'm running FC2 on Celeron 128MB with an 7G partition. I included X,
Gnome, OO... all that stuff. After installing, it took 3-5 GB (I don't
remember)... not including swap space (about 128 or 256 MB). I just
remember having about 2.5GB left over.
My guess: your hard drive is probably too small. You might try
removing options (like X-windows and office managers)... but even then
it will probably be tight... maybe too tight to use.
