Next LUG meet: 9 Nov 2003 around 4 pm - VJTI -------------------------------------------- Hi all, Please ignore previous mail.
I wish to try out small foot print linux distributions. I have at my dispense a - HP Vectra Pentium 100 24MB RAM 80MB IDE HDD / 250MB IDE HDD onboard S3 Trio64 Keyboard I wish to turn this system into a blackbox system which can be accessed remotely either via terminal or via ppp link (Ethernet is currently optional, but its in plan for future). Currently I have installed Redhat 6 on this. ttyS0 is configured for serial terminals using mingetty. ttyS1 is configured for PPP access via null modem cable. Currently I can access the machine fine via above setup. But I want to explore more into this kind of system so that maximum flexibility can be provided in it. The current installation without X setup takes 200MB which I cam sure can be stripped down to basics. Any pointers??? I have downloaded ETLinux today but yet to try it.
