i have 10.3 installed on a 2 gig partition. doing that made it run out of scratch disk space and i got (gasp!) a low memory error!
OMG! This is, in fact, a dangerous thing. You could screw up your HFS file structure. There have been known issues when HFS partitions died after they ran out of space. I guess it has to do with OS unable to write the latest FS modifications to the disk.
I suggest you file the bug report to Apple. Either Panther shouldn't install on such a small partition, or... I don't know what.

I don't know all of that. I think OS X has gotten a good deal better with disk hygiene (not that it was bad before) with Panther: when plugging in my iPod, it prompted me instantaneously that I had little disk space left, and that I'd better remove some stuff. Of course, I'm not down with that. My early 10 GBs are always filled to the brim. Although, come to think of it, I had to factory-restore my iPod yesterday.

i had to chop down the install (fonts, iapps, printer drivers) to get it to install. That picture and the error message was taken over a week ago, and im still chugging along on panther just fine.
No on the dragging and dropping to a folder within a folder in the Dock.
Check this out though: if you Command-Tab, it no longer uses the Dock! All the icons for all the open apps pop up in the middle of the screen, can you can choose them by Command-tabbing or with your mouse! That's great!
Guys. Seriously. At this point does it really MATTER if it's cocoa or carbon? I mean, if Carbon has gotten good enough that you can't tell the difference superficially and have to resort to odd trickery like the above to find obscure behavior differences, I think the debate it pointless.
Metallifzer puts Aqua or Metal into Cocoa apps, but not Carbon, so it does matter.

Otherwise, I'm sure the fine folks over in the 7B** build thread would like to see your screenshot.

No wait... It's Cocoa apps that refuse to go under the dock! I guess the finder is Cocoa! Hooray! Now we might be able to operate Metallifizer on it.

Sounds like a basic version of LiteSwitch X.
