List of absolutely required files for FreeBSD?

[Sean Hafeez]

well i have been installing the normal + kernel dev package/src because 
i need to recompile the kernel. then remove the /usr/src and /usr/ports 
then go thru and trim the *share *docs *examples and end up with a 220mb 
system. i am quite sure that you can remove more.
