I'm running Debian on a 2 gig drive.  I'm running out of space now, but
that's with 3 years worth clutter on there as well (and this system
supports 2 uers as well).  So I'd definitely say yes, especially if you
don't want Xwindows (which you probably don't).

Yep.

Urrrr. I don't understand the question.  Filesystems are on partitions, not
drives.  So you could have an ext2 filesystem and a fat32 filesystem on
seperate partitions on the same drive.
