Xenix space requirements (2.2.3 > 2.3.2)

I'm trying to determine how much additional space SCO Xenix 2.3.2 requires
as compared to 2.2.3. I thought that if you added up all the packages that
you're adding thru custom, and then multiplied by 512, you'd get the space
needed for OS in Mb. Is this true? I always thought so... 

If so, how come when you add up all of the packages(excluding ALL) it doesn't
add up to ALL? It's short by about 1 Mb. What am I missing here? 

We're upgrading our customer base to 2.3.2 and some of them are on IBM AT's
with 30 Mb hard drives. They're really pushing it on space and I need to 
determine if an upgrade is feasible with this drive.

Thanks
