I don't know if this is the SMALLEst or best, but I just started using TinyBSD (www.tinybsd.org). I have a fully working system with ftp/http server (base system ftpd and hiawatha httpd) and i have only used ~18mb of CF space and barely use any ram at all. Here is the top after running all day... with a few http/ftp requests:
Mem: 3740K Active, 3784K Inact, 7680K Wired, 20K Cache, 7120K Buf, 39M Free total memory: 64 MB total CF space: 32MB hope this helps.. take a look into it. I'm a huge freebsd fan and just got into this stuff... so i was in love with tinybsd :) On Nov 19, 2007 10:19 AM, Jeff Ramin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > I've got a net4526, and I'd like to find the smallest linux > possible to run on it, leaving as much space as possible for > applications. > > Anybody have recommendations?
