My system software got 'munged' last month (we we're hacking with NetInfo & 
managed to turn my station into a GREAT looking doorstop/paper-weight).  I
ran build-disk on my drive (while attached to a cube w/virgin 2.0ext OD) and
everything runs fine.

The question is.....(drum roll please)......

How much space is on the 200Mb drives delivered from NeXT??  (Take the total
size of the root filesystem and add the available space from WM)   

I have 149Mb used and 23.4Mb available (total 172Mb).  Is this the proper 
amount????

The drive is a 210Mb Quantum drive -- I can't IMAGINE the UNIX formatting   
steals 30-40Mb on such a small drive.  I must have done something wrong 
during the builddisk.

Please check your 200Mb systems & e-mail me the numbers.

Thanks 

Tyler
