So, last night I was bored and got around to toying with debootstrap( again, but first time in a while ). I'm curious how you Robert get such a small barefs. I have not read your scripts in their entirety, but it stands to reason with a little bit of help from google I should be able to get close. But this has not been the case so far.
Basically what I did once in the chroot was as follows . . . - export LANG=C - /debootstrap/debootstrap --second-stage - apt-get purge tasksel info install-info vim-common vim-tiny man-db manpages aptitude - apt-get autoremove - apt-get clean - rm -rf /usr/share/man/?? - rm -rf /usr/share/man/??_* - apt-get install localepurge deborphan debfoster - localepurge - rm -rf /usr/share/doc/ - rm -rf /usr/share/doc-base/ - dpkg --purge man-db manpages - rm -r /var/lib/apt/lists Then as a test, just to see if it could be done . . . - wget --no-check-certificate https://rcn-ee.net/deb/wheezy-armhf/v3.8.13-bone68/linux-image-3.8.13-bone68_1wheezy_armhf.deb - dpkg -i linux-image-3.8.13-bone68_1wheezy_armhf.deb // Cheating ? testing if this works . . .hah! - rm linux-image-3.8.13-bone68_1wheezy_armhf.deb - rm -r /var/lib/apt/lists - deborphan --guess-all - apt-get autoremove --purge - apt-get clean So . . . root@darkness:/# *du -hsx * | sort -rh | head -10* 58M usr 42M lib 8.1M boot 7.6M var 3.6M sbin 3.6M bin 1.5M etc 32K root 28K run 8.0K dev What am I missing here ? A couple packages, purgelocales deborphan etc, but this seems large for a stripped down debootstrap rootfs. Including modules, and kernel. -- For more options, visit http://beagleboard.org/discuss --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "BeagleBoard" group.
