Well minimal is all I care... not buildroot. But I would expect it to be < 20M in size. Does that make sense.... or am i speaking gibberish :-) ?
Doesn't the nano flavour take care of this?
Nano rootfs is 33M compressed tarball which expands to 95M.
That's "small", not "embedded" ;)
quite. You can get a debian-based distro down to about 56MB uncompressed: http://www.emdebian.org/grip/index.html (using the grip bloat-removal tools), or 90Mb without (corresponds to 'nano').
I guess something we can work on at the Nano image is to try to at least use the same grip tools to make it at least a bit smaller.
Guess something we can work during 12.04, once we switch officially to armhf and Ubuntu precise-based builds.
Thanks,
