Re: Linux Router Project -- About to get working and need more people!



Try the root on the resc1440.bin floppy . It contains a functional Unix
tool set, a good shell, and an editor. It fits on a 1.44MB ramdisk image,
compresses down to 700KB on the floppy, leaves enough room for the kernel
on the same 1.44MB floppy, and supports shared libraries. You would be hard
pressed to improve on its size.

If you study the script that builds it in the boot-floppies package, you'll
learn the dirty tricks necessary to get a system in a space that small.

	Thanks
