Re: Linux under 8MB

[Ondrej Zary]

I've made a printserver with i386DX/25, 8MB RAM and 170MB HDD. Kernel is 
2.6.12 (very light - 1.2MB uncompressed), userspace is based on 
Slackware 9.0 (init scripts modified), print server is CUPS. It boots in 
about a minute. It ran with 4MB too but the boot time was around 15 
minutes :-) (with original init scripts).
