2.0.1 upgrade: How much working disk space to do it?

I'd like to ftp the 2.0.1 upgrade for my system, but the files
are big and I'm not sure I can do it in the space available.

My system consists of a iici with a 105 meg internal disk having about
10 megs of free space in /usr/local and a syquest drive which now
holds all my mac stuff.  The syquest also has about 10 megs of
free space.  Obviously I could temporarily dismount the mac disk,
but I'd rather not.  I also have about 2 megs free in /.

I have to uuencode the files to get them over my downlink, so I need
space to decode as well as install them.

Any and all advice appreciated

ps.  is the file 2.0.1_README plain text, or partly binary?  Some of
it seems unprintable.
