[not subscribed, so cc: me on responses to list] Here's a link to the image of my current floppy. http://www.cs.columbia.edu/~spotter/floppy.bin here's a link to my kernel configuration http://www.cs.columbia.edu/~Espotter/kernel.config
Build: based off of a recent nightly release of uClibc, the latest release of busybox, Xfree 4.2.0, latest zlib, rdesktop and the udhcp package everything was compiled against uClibc. busybox, Xvesa, zlib and udhcp are all dynamic, while rdesktop is static (because libX11 at one point was looking too big, might be able to fit it now, but haven't tried) Issues: o The kernel only comes with a 3com 3c905 ethernet driver built in. If you have a different ethernet card in the computer, you will have to compile a new kernel and replace it on the floppy. o The robustness of this hasn't really been tested (I haven't tried to break it, and this floppy is only a side effect of my real project, so it works for my purposes) o there's a lot of cruft from different things I was testing, that I haven't cleaned up. o it doesn't handle what happens when rdesktop quits. I figure you can either have rdesktop restart (while [ 1 ] do rdesktop done type thing) or have it autoreboot, I've tried the autoreboot thing, and it doesn't seem to work for me right now.
