I think what you would really want to put on the disk
includes the full complement of tool files including
tool number 35 (MIDIsynth) for playing music files,
the HFS FST, and the hard drive and CD-ROM SCSI
drivers.  These should fit in the 161k space you have
left.

I'd go with David's suggestion of setting up a 1.5MB
drive so that Cusom Install can give you a more
complete set of options, then remove the ones that
are less important manually until you get to 1MB or
just below that.

Good luck!
