Hello,

First thanks to all involved for making Slitaz available. I have interest in 
trying this on hardware that is old. WebDT366GX. From a YouTube video I saw I 
see that someone else had the same idea. They had great results from what I saw 
in the video. 

What I know I have ahead of me: Kernel compilation and video driver compiling. 
If Slitaz lines up with ubuntu or Debian for versions of both kernel and Xorg I 
can use vendor supplied touchscreen driver. If not I need to get input attach 
in there with xinput_calibrator. Video driver needs /dev/cpu/0/msr registers 
available or it crashes. 

I’m not sure how reliable docs are at this point so I should ask? They are kind 
of hard to read as it involves adopting to a new set of terminology. Assuming a 
developer wants “cooking”? If docs were easier to understand I would be set but 
they are not so I write this email. 

Is there possibility of making a VM for a development environment? Say 
VirtualBox? I need to be i486 or i586 and don’t want to use the actual hardware 
for the fact that its only 256mb of ram and 500mb hdd. 

First I need to qualify that changes can be persistent? Or that changes being 
persistent between boots is even possible? If not its not a game changer but it 
would be nice. So what do I need to start up a vm and get Slitaz setup for 
kernel and driver compilation?  


Thank you in advance

Daryl
