is exactly what RULE does: allow you to install a Red Hat Linux
system into older hardware, or any hardware with less memory (down to
6MB RAM in some cases), and install a much smaller set of packages
than Anaconda usually selects. It is still Red Hat Linux, though.

Yes I have even tested it and strange thing happened. I have selected NO sendmail and NO ssh and some other stuff but they were installed regardless of my choise. So this looks like normal minimal install from RH8. In fact it is the same install after I have checked the size on the disk it is exactly the same 476 megs. Looks like that dependieces didn't let to install without some files which I didn't want to.


The base install should take less than 200 megs. You may have selected other package groups which require sendmail or ssh. Would you mind sending me a copy of /root/scripts/install_log offlist?

When I select NO for sendmail it responds "Bad number" and also for ssh.
I can't give you a copy becasue I have allready erase it. The packages I have select were nettools, iptables.
But what I have seen it installs also ftp client, man pages etc.
Anyway I'll try to make minimum with custom setup from RH8 and with ignoring dependiences. Will see how it works.
