Hi,
using distro-constructor to make a live dvd, I'd like to reduce the size of the
image.
In contrast to its name, slim_install requires numerous unnecessary packages
like firefox or the czech language support.
However trying without it leads to failures.
First, the dependencies are so wrong that nothing seems to require the kernel.
After adding SUNWcakr to the manifest the boot process of the iso crashes a few
seconds later.
Apparently the low level stuff has to be done by hand. Since it takes too long
to rebuild and test the image I am wondering if anyone has gone this path
already and could share the minimal set of dependencies to get to a CLI login?
You're better off using the text installer and using what it installs as
a base.
There is a significant amount of package refactoring and dependency
correction work that has yet to be done.
Find out more about the text installer here:
