Just for fun, not for boasting ;-) Out of curiosity, I pared down nearly everything from my Gentoo VMware Guest.
`free -m` directly after booting + login: Mem: total 499 used 28 free 470 shared 0 buffers 1 cached 12 Granted, system is quite possibly unusable for serious purposes, although I can still login (console & ssh) and do `emerge --sync` But still, I'm amazed at how low Gentoo can go :-) Well done, Gentoo team!
