I have found this link http://owlriver.com/tips/tiny-centos
for installing centos on a minimal system. I am looking at putting
centos on a 1 GIG flash drive. The above page talks about removing
packages
after install to attain the small size.
however, I am getting blocked at the install page about not enough
room to install.
All I have selected is the base package. nothing else.
Is there a way to install "less thank" base... I tried to option off
items in the base package
but the last message I got was about 1044 was my packages size...
Anyone have suggestions or have tried to install on a small device.
THanks,
uClinux, busybox, and use a combination of flashfs (r/o, highly
compressed) and jffs2 (r/w) and you'll have most of that 1GB flash
available for applications (I've run a system based on this mix on
hardware with 16MB ram and 8MB flash and had freespace). yes, you'll
be rolling your own going this way.
