though you might have difficulties with the USB ADSL modem.
That's why i sent the e-mail to this mailing list. What if i compiled the system in another pc? Would gnat give a easy to use method to update a tarball, or something similar, to update the system at the old pc? BTW, what are differences between normal baselayout and the embedded one? Does the network (for ADSL) configuration part work in a similar way? Thanks for the help 2006/6/27, Thierry Carrez <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:

Since you want to run from harddisk, there might be other solutions out there better suited for that job (small footprint distros). -- Koon -- [email protected] mailing list
