I added: net-tools-1.60-r7.tbz2 grep-2.5.1-r1.tbz2 coreutils-5.0-r3.tbz2 And now everything seems to be near 100% functional. Only two small errors at boot related to runlevels, but runlevels are working 100% or so it seems. > On another note, I went a bit furter and installed: > > gpm-1.20.1.tbz2 > ncurses-5.3-r2.tbz2 > links-2.1_pre9.tbz2 > > Getting a working browser adding an additional 3 megs (didnt know > ncurses was so big) making the whole thing 19 megs. > The whole thing (with gpm, ncurses, links) is now 22 megs(if you dont include gpm, nvurses and links its 3 megs less.. 19 megs for a base system). Big for embedded but take in account that I only have made a small change in the gentoo scripts. Apart from that change (change agetty->getty in inittab) the rest is as it comes with baselayout. Advantage is that you can make an embedded system with practically no knowledge of embedded systems and in a few minutes! I would love to see an effort into rolling out an embedded gentoo baselayout.
