There's also pimpmycat. Takes a while to install, but more or less all you have to is keep hitting the return key until it's done. Puts everything (including local perl) under whatever directory you specify. http://code.google.com/p/pimpmycat/ 2006/12/21, Daniel McBrearty [EMAIL PROTECTED]:

the clone I made last night was pretty big --- 5GB or so. When I get some time I'll take a look to see where that is coming from. On 12/21/06, Thomas Hartman [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: There's also pimpmycat. Takes a while to install, but more or less all you have to is keep hitting the return

I'm probably going to make a few vmware images for myself to use that will be on the larger side (more than 300 MB compressed). To give people an idea of the minimum possible filesize, here is a standard install of ubuntu 6.10-server in a 63 MB package:

it's all yours ;-) if you have time to sort this from a clean system, it likely makes more sense than me messing around with a copy of my working system which has all manner of stuff on it. cheers D I think as long as it has cat, TT, DBIX and mysqlite, that's enough. On 12/21/06, Rhett

Is anyone working on a vmware image for Catalyst like the docs say? I'm starting to make one for myself, maybe with damn small linux. Though, I've never done this before. Let me know if anyone has suggestion, or wants to help, or already did this. Rhett

If that is so you can download the image and have a working development system, I'd love it. I want to look into Catalyst (currently use PHP / Smarty), but don't have a lot of spare time right now to research it. A ready to run image would make it way easier to get started, especially if it

does anyone have workable hosting for such a thing? I do my dev on an Ubuntu VM running on an XP host. It wouldn't be *that* much hassle for me to clone what I have, clean up a bit, and put a basic cat install on there. might have to wait a few weeks though, all the spare time I have goes into

I'm glad to hear it might be helpful. I'm probably not the best person for this job because I've never done this before, but I'll give it a shot. I'm going to try to do it for VMware because a VMware player is free (as in beer). However, Parallels has MacOS support, and overall seems to run

Do you know what the approximate filesize would be (zipped or RAR'd)? Ubuntu would be great. Thanks, Brian Daniel McBrearty wrote: does anyone have workable hosting for such a thing? I do my dev on an Ubuntu VM running on an XP host. It wouldn't be *that* much hassle for me to clone what I

It is definately possible to make a pretty useable package on the order of 100 MB. Maybe a minimal ubuntu install would be closer to 200 MB I think. Rhett On Wed, 20 Dec 2006, Brian wrote: Do you know what the approximate filesize would be (zipped or RAR'd)? Ubuntu would be great.

Not sure. I've never tried before. I'm just cloning my m/c now. All I have to do then would be to remove all my working source and so on from my home, and change the password. That should leave you with a working cat install plus all the DBIx, TT, as well as apache, postgres and mysql. It might
