+Hi,
+
+What I did is :
+urpmi_rpm-find-leaves
+then :
+urpme of all packages except basesystem, urpmi, openssh-server, msec,
+locales-fr, and tcsh (I found this in a Mandriva forum).
+The disk space is still of about 450Mb (better than the initial 660Mb).
+When I add samba-server and samba-client, it increases up to 550Mb.
+When I add msec-gui, it goes up to 650Mb.
+
+Xuo.
