If they want to slimdown the image size, they can remove openoffice,evolution,all the man pages, even gnome and they can come up with a mini distro for 50 MB like Damn small linux. Why they give for 700MB? they can release a 10MB distro and everything can be downloaded from repo. because, without internet the default 700MB distro is useless for daily usage. anyhow, we are going to connect with internet or have to get repo DVDs. Why can't they slimdown to 10MB? -- Regards, T.Shrinivasan My experiences with Linux are here http://goinggnu.wordpress.com For Free and Open Source Jobs http://fossjobs.wordpress.com -- ubuntu-in mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-in
