Mandrake took me only 700 MB. It's installed everything I needed (except for CVS, which I can't manually install).

Nice, but not as impressive as this:

Minimum system requirements needed to install and run Slackware:

    * 386 processor
    * 16MB RAM
    * 50 megabytes of hard disk space
    * 3.5" floppy drive

Master of Reality:
full install of slackware is almost 2GB.

Yep, but installing Slackware on a very small hard drive is much easier than with other distro's. I've always liked this distro and still use it(mostly for testing...).

Faust:
Debian...  Default install is 250 meg and you have around 10,000 programs to install from.  Not to mention the massive amount of care and quality put into it.

That's funny, because Slackware 9.0 is not even compiled for i386.
