Basically, that would be something like the various BSD distributions, sans all this third-party cruft like ports/pkgsrc/packages (including, X, GNOME, etc, etc,...) which would be managed separately. If that minimalist distro were able to compile itself from /usr/src directly, esp. from /usr/src fetched via Mercurial, it would be even better. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
