Possibly. It most certainly will be smaller. I have several LFS servers that run LAMP for specialized scientific research and the total disk used is 3.2G. It doesn't have any X overhead. This is a list of my packages beyond LFS: apache fcron logrotate openssh postfix svn bdb inetd mailx openssl python tcpwrappers blfs-bootscripts iptables mysql pcre rsync wget curl libxml2 nettools php sqlite which denyhosts linux ntp popt sudo Several of these are not needed in this case, but were put in place by another admin: denyhosts inetd python tcpwrappers Of the 3.2G, 1.2G is sources Now the question of running faster is another issue. That is really a function of the software package in question and that package's configuration. -- Bruce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
