So, I think 10GB Disk space for install all packages is ok ?
            

10GB is good for the root partition.  Depending on what you're using the
machine for, you might also want 20GB for /home.
          

Sorry, what useful for root partition ?
        

Edward, mine is a very average install - nowhere near everything.  'df -h'
shows
Filesystem            Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/hdb1              12G  4.7G  6.7G  42% /

I think you are going to need more space than you originally thought if
you want such a lot installed.

All of the packages around 4.xGB size ?
    

Yes, at this moment, but that doesn't show any indication of /temp usage, 
which can be quite high from time to time.

  

BTW, how about of your swap partition ?
    

1GB.  I had only 512MB on FC4 and it never caused me any problems.  It was 
rarely used.
