Excellent suggestion. For example, our Linux guru went thru the various
FAQ's and found a way to install a fully working system on a 100M Zip
drive! There even is a 10-20M swap partition and the rest is for the
system. He set up a boot diskette and there it all was. Very nice.

neither know what we need or want yet. Is there any way that a list can
be compiled to let us know what we need most out of this extensive list
of files, so that we can get operational systems, and get used to the
system? After we get used to the system, we will better know what it is

I should be able to tell you more about this as soon as it's worked out.
A discussion of the merits of creating a SEUL distribution should be moved
