I'd be interested in the size you've got. I was playing around and built a MFS booting kernel, that had init, ifconfig, sh, and mount_nfs (500K MFS.) Then on my NFS server, I had XF86_VGA16, libc.so, libm.so, libgnumalloc.so, XF86Config, ldconfig. That would get the whole thing running and in X. The server was also running xfs (the font server) and xdm. The whole setup for the diskless unit was 2 megs on the server and the kernel was 1.2 megs. Server: 486DX2/80 12 MB RAM Client: 386DX/25 4 MB RAM (slowest 386 ever made, also has broken mathco) If you want details let me know. Kurt Olsen kurto@tiny.mcs.usu.edu
