Yes, that's exactly how I think it should be done. The userspace in "smallsys" is more for demonstration purposes. The "look, it does something" kind of thing :-) > How big does the kernel alone build with that config? If I disable initramfs, it's 0.88 MB. I stopped ripping out things when the build problems reached the 90% of additional effort for 10% better results point. We should continue this cleanup at some point in time, though. Any such build problems are real bugs after all. - Werner
