[Asterisk-Users] Absolute Minimum Installation Packages

[JR Richardson]

I’m trying to get the total Linux/* installation size as small as possible.  I’m wondering if anyone has looked at the installed packages list from the Redhat installation [rpm –qa] and has parsed out all packages not needed for * to run.  I follow the custom install guide from Andy Powell but the installation yields 948+ Meg with 340 installed packages.  I’m sure most of those packages can be eliminated.   If the installation can be reduced to below, say 600 Meg, then there’s an opportunity to harden * into a KNOPPIX Customization.   BTW, has anyone already tried to produce a KNOPPIX * Customization?   Thanks in advance.   JR
