I wasn't trying to make any point; just sharing my experiences that (1) tinygentoo image was easy to work with for creating uclibc-linked this and that (2) with a 2.6 you can embed your whole file system into the kernel and boot and go just from the kernel -- no file system at all -- that way you don't have to pivot-root from the initrd -- just stay there. I'm sort of fishing for stories about why that might be a bad idea, beyond that 1: it varies from standard practice and 2: the initramfs is not backed by swap, as normal shmfs is (I guess I'm also sharing that the "existing build environment" had too high a learning barrier; that the "gcc.lrp" package did not appear to exist on the .iso; and that a build environment lrp might be a good idea; that altogether I found Bering to be organized well) Also you seem to have misconstrued my "size matters" to mean something different from what I intended. No harm, no foul. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
