OS3.9 on 40MB HD?

[Oliver]

Hi,

I have a 1200 with it's original 40MB IDE hard drive, running OS3.1 with 3.1 ROM's.  I have been considering using OS3.9.  I don't particularly want to put another hard drive in the machine at the moment, and would like to know how much space 3.9 would occupy on a hard drive, and what would be the minimum partition size I could use?

I mostly just use the machine for midi sequencing, and the odd floppy disk game, so the system partition is not likely to need much more space after the initial installation.

Thanks a lot for any advice.

Cheers Nagaflas, thanks for the info.  I might just hold off on 3.9 then.  I just wanted to taste it really.  Don't have any real need for it.

Thanks a lot,
