Although it's not directly related to nano (which is useful in itself
as a miminal usable system) it could make sense to be able to generate
images with no built-in packager support - i.e., the packer must
effectively be run offline to generate the
Hi,
Installed image is 125 Megs. (Down from 290 Meg) We're on the cusp
of being able to fit into 128 megs of flash.
If that's seen to be interesting, we should probably discuss it with
the emdebian folks-- there's a risk of reinventing what they do; plus
they certainly have tools which

Do we have any any hardware that needs it? If so could there be a

Hi
In the developer platforms team we're working on getting the
linaro-nano image so that it is considerably smaller.
Brilliant!
Some highlights to nano:

So that said, what is the best way to proceed?
