All in total including my everquest play directory, eqemu, mysql, perl, and all other various tools and editing utils along with many databases and eqemu directories I have just under 10 gigs.
I do run a custom setup but 10 gigs is a safe ballpark I would think if you plan on doing any custom work and want utils etc...
More specific itemized layout that you might use:
eqemu directory: (with source) 1.04 gig, (without) 1.03 gig
Perl and cpan: 60mb
mysql with one database: 350mb (typical databases I would guess are around 60 to 150mb I would recommend having enough room for a backup just in case)
Everquest directory 3.5 gig
These are all estimates so your mileage may vary and I may have missed something.
edit: I run with 1.5 gig ram and suffer no lag. so yea 1 gig should do fine.
