Minimium drive space needed for the host portion of Proxmox VE 2.0?

I'm planning on installing Proxmox VE 2.0 on my HP MicroServer and I'm wondering what the minimum amount of space needed for the host OS is. Somewhere in my apartment I have an 8GB thumb drive but all I can find now is a 4GB drive. Is 4GB enough space or do I need to find my 8GB drive? My VMs will be stored on a 250GB SATA drive.

I looked in one of my installation documents and found some information: Proxmox VE 1.9 and one container with the template ubuntu-10.04-standard_10.04-4_amd64 takes about 400 MB.

So a 4GB drive should be plenty of space. Sweet. I will only be creating 3 VMs and the actual disk images for them will be on a separate HD.
