The EmbeddedArm that I posted about upthread boots linux from a 32MB flash. With HTTP server. You don't need Ubuntu, you don't need any gui, X, etc. DSL should do the job and it even includes X-windows. Sure, a 4GB flash would work, but they are expensive and 99% of what is on it you don't need. a SlimServer does not need FireFox, Thunderbird and lots of desktop stuff. -- pfarrell Pat http://www.pfarrell.com/music/slimserver/slimsoftware.html ------------------------------------------------------------------------ pfarrell's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=200 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=36385 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
