I noticed that you said your setup is approximately 60mb, I'm curious to a
couple of things.

1 What is the purpose of running such a system from CD?  I understand the
need for quick booting, but would this make a static system, you can only
modify so much, I assume that you are still using a floppy disk to make
changes to config files and such?

2 There have been a few other threads that you might check through the
archives of people putting more and more onto a LEAF release, one thing I
had looked at was putting a fax server on a LEAF router.  Something with a
multiport card, storage would be offsite (ie a fileserver), in essence you
could have a 2U box in your rack that serves as a multipurpose unit.

3 As a suggestion to your mySQL problem, double check your users accounts, I
seem to recall someone else having a user account problem when migrating
between the different Bering releases.  Good luck, and I look forward to
seeing your write up when you complete everything.

Hello!

Thanks for your hint, but ... :)

... i go another direction. I think bigger(in terms of megabyte). My system
is based on bering. I use a cd-rom as boot system, so i have no space
limitations.

My plan is following. I want to create a system which is booting from cd-rom
and works on a ram disk. bering does this very well. On this system should
run a intranet system. For the intranet i use phpGroupware, because i'm a
developer of phpGroupware. phpGroupware requires PHP. I want to support
HTTPS. so i use apache(mod_ssl). phpGroupware requires a database in the
background, so i use mysql. A intranet needs a SMTP server, so i use
postfix..... and so on. :)

I plan to write a white paper some day.

I would like to have this system as small as possible, but i now i'm already
at 60MByte(apache, postfix, mysql, openssl, openldap, php4). This would not
fit on a floppy disk anymore. The ramdisk becomes bigger. And you need a
harddisk as storage for the emails, ldap database ....

Just some thougths.
