Regarding the request about A/UX disk space:

Out of a 80MByte Quantum, expect only about 10 Meg of usable space
in the final release....

This is partly due to the distribution size (~ <50M), swapping area (10M),
MacOS partition (?2-4Meg), disk map layouts, ...  

Note: this is also with 'compressed' man pages....
