Dear Devuaners, inspired by the recent thread about unofficial devuan live images obtained with refracta tools, in the last few days I have been experimenting with a small-footprint version of Devuan Jessie Beta. My goal was to obtain a fully functional minimal system using standard Devuan packages and less than 250 MB. The main purpose would be a minimal system to put on a small USB key or on a card CDROM.
The results of those experiments can be found here: http://devuan.kalos.mine.nu/ It is a minimal UNOFFICIAL live ISO image of Devuan Jessie Beta, which includes a few ncurses-based personal productivity packages, a couple of editors, basic versions of perl and python, and some additional stuff. Nothing more. No bloat. No X. Even if I am considering adding Xorg + DWM, at the cost of a few more megabytes. The image boots in a few seconds, and should run on anything amd64 with more than 64MB of RAM. I will probably provide also an i386 image. Please feel free to try it and send comments and/or suggestions. I will now try to understand how the whole process can be simplified using the devuan sdk.
