X86_64-LFS-linuc-uclibc A verysmall linux with libc, bash, and emacs. Filesys fits on one screen. Works fast and bootstraps c++ Install it, use it, make changes! Needs help, too much for just me. Dru

Hi, So cool. Technical writing often experiences higher demand than just technical... I think the project is now called SYSTEM42 It's a primordial linux distribution. There are a few subprojects; rc, psu, jdk; and some prerequisites (source tarballs). If you can post into the project's "General Discussion" forum that would help the ball roll. Andrew

If you find a laptop , sometimes they work fine though you are required to jiggle the power adaptor cord exactly so. You can defrag and shrink the inevitable windos install, freeing up enough disk space for two or three primary partitions. One partition is for slackware15.2 and the other is for theTool. Grab a heap of tarballs. Features: 8-bit "clean", static libraries, no version/update/pkgtool at all (Dig it). fixed, point release (Point is bootstrap c++ from gcc).

The tiny config is super small but does not run. Change it to 64-bit and add a PCI bus, an ext2 and scsi driver, also a SATA AHCI driver, tty, IPC and maybe a few other things. The kernel comes out to about 1.4M without ACPI, which is ok! Maybe this is the kernel that will get the nod as the small kernel. (Probably not, It won't sleep. Also, consider auto r/w without swap/vm. [for ftello]).

Have needed to update some things. Might still be trying to multi-phase a glibc into play, hehe.. gnu99 gnu11 Will use gcc 4.7.2 to try and build 7.5.0. Mmm, nope. Parse error, expected 'S'... libiconv... binutils from cc/bin not usr/bin... Have instructions to bootstrap libjava, really rough, erm. M4 still needs not Solaris r/w transition in ftello.c

Not ncurses 6.4 instead 6.3. libsigsegv 2.15 does build.

List of most useful source tarballs. A big part is version selection, so that the release can be "fixed" soon. uClibc version 1.0.56 runs very nicely, indeed. binutils is 2.32, gcc 4.9.2: linux is 4.2 and the config barely has IP (which can go, its a single user system so far). System42 can be presented statically, or dynamically, includes an rc/init, and comes in three flavours (profile,optimize,reduce). Two of the flavours require additional tarballs.
