Ipkg Installation Issues

[starkruzr]

Okay.  So this is what root on my 3.5.3 on SL-5500 looks like straight from install:

Code: [Select]

Filesystem           1k-blocks      Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/mtdblock4           14464     13108      1356  91% /
After doing an ipkg update, it looks like this:

Code: [Select]

Filesystem           1k-blocks      Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/mtdblock4           14464     13584       880  94% /
Is there supposed to be more room in here?  I don't remember older versions of OZ (3.2?) being quite so huge in root the first time around.  From experience it does not seem this is enough to even install things in /mnt/ram, because it makes enough configuration changes that affect /etc that this space fills up way too quickly.  Doing one ipkg upgrade after flashing to 3.5.3 maxes out my root about halfway through installing stuff.

Can someone help me clean root out so that I have room to install things?  Kismet and a little word processor would be nice.  

Thanks.

P.S. Here's what happens when I do ipkg upgrade:
