But with only 300 Mb to spare I was loathe to commit any of it
permanently to BL.

100MB should be plenty if you don't plan to compile.

In 47MB I have kermit (but microcom usually works instead), links2, lynx, Opera (three browsers), a way to display pdf (without X, convert to images or text), a way to view images (xli or zgv), a way to modify images and print them (netpbm). Abiword uses another 12MB. In a few more megabytes you could include sound support (with a larger kernel) and streaming audio (mplayer) and a DVD player (mplayer). Support for digital cameras (gphoto). All of Steven's add-ons might fit into 100MB.

Can you shrink your DOS partition to make a 100MB free space?
