As noted before, my prototyping system has a 2 GB HD, and this > process runs it out of space. when you do da make buildowrld you can use a /etc/make.conf with things excluded you do not need. Or if you want a different make.conf than fr your base system you may use make buildworld __MAKE_CONF=/path/to/another/make.conf This is undocumented (I guess) but works on current. You will still need about 450 MB for in /usr/obj for building. depending on your needs you should be able to tune something. I think the script from phk passes options on comamnd line. I have once started with the one at the end of the mail by coping the one from my base system and adjusted it to my needs (leaving a lot of unneeded things like perl and papersize, ...) It will still give you about 40 MB w/o a kernel and /etc installed; about 58MB with. You then need to remove the things mentioned p.ex. in phk's script. I am using a Makefile hierachie framework to be more selective and also replace things like master.passwd ssh keys etc .... Also easily doable with a shell script. After installing a kernel do not forget to remove all unneeded kernel modules (will save about 10 MB depending on what you need). Last you may also want to strip kernel etc which is not stripped. After that with all pam*, far to many programms and postifx, racoon and dhcprelay loader and pxeboot ,...... I can easily get down to 22MB. (postfix raccon and dhcprelay make about 4.5MB of those). Being a bit more selective you should be able to easily get it down to 12-16 MB. -- Bjoern A.
