to customize it into a single purpose image.

After taking a nice long liesurely ride with Larry and touching on the topic, I was thinking it's something I'd like to do. My initial goals are to only have a 256MB CF card with everything needed to boot the system and start the needed services. (Samba, NFS, SSH, distcc)From there the RAID array would handle dishing out the data anda RAM disk if neccessary for faster response than the CF would allow. Forgive me for any bad spellings or english since I'm doing fine with my Fat Tire :)
Keep in mind that Knoppix is basically this sort of deal already. Strip
out the stuff you don't need and replace the GNU tools with busybox (may
have to mod a few things for that) and it'll probably fit in 512 megs
easily. KDE + Gnome == big.
