Hi Mark,
852 MB should be enough. Go with a "Custom" installation, and
you'll need to be utterly ruthless about not installing unneeded
distribution sets.
"Custom" installation scares me a little, as I don't really know what I'm doing yet.
I will try and read docs and probably start over

should never use a / only system, in some cases I have found it very
useful.
