I have a mac os 9 partition with a system folder at 385mb, so I'd say 
if you were never going to use it, 500mb should be more than enough. 
Hell, my extensions folder is 120mb, and if i wasn't actively using os 
9, i could happily get rid of most of those.

In fact, on my 6100 (mac os 8 and MKLinux) I have a 100mb os 8 
partition, with a 30mb system folder (and simple text, just in case). 
With a good 70 (ish) mb to spare.

To be honest, I don't know how far you can trim os 9 down though...
