[ILUG-BOM]Embedded Linux Distribution
by K i r ＠ n G h a g 20 Oct '03

20 Oct '03

Hi all, Please ignore previous mail. I wish to try out small foot print linux distributions. I have at my dispense a - HP Vectra Pentium 100 24MB RAM 80MB IDE HDD / 250MB IDE HDD onboard S3 Trio64 Keyboard I wish to turn this system into a blackbox system which can be accessed remotely either via terminal or via ppp link (Ethernet is currently optional, but its in plan for future). Currently I have installed Redhat 6 on this. ttyS0 is configured for serial terminals using mingetty. ttyS1 is configured for PPP access via null modem cable. Currently I can access the machine fine via above setup. But I want to explore more into this kind of system so that maximum flexibility can be provided in it. The current installation without X setup takes 200MB which I cam sure can be stripped down to basics. Any pointers??? I have downloaded ETLinux today but yet to try it. Thanks and Regards, Kiran Ghag Software Engineer @ Patni Computers, India Web Page: http://kiran7.freeservers.com If for every rule there is an exception, then we have established that there is an exception to every rule.

people, can I request you'll to at least trim original posts before replying? There's no need to have two headers telling us where and when the next lug meet is.

[ILUG-BOM]mozilla startup time
by linuxdev 19 Oct '03

19 Oct '03

how to reduce the startup time of mozilla ? currently on my rh 9.0 box its taking quite a bit of time. Using Mozilla 1.5 custom compiled. I tried every bit of optimization. Gentoo and Mandrake claim first time startup of approx 3 seconds. I tried using the same options mentioned in the ebuild script of gentoo. Mine goes 3 seconds on 4th or 5th loading. Is there somewhere else i should look for optimization ??
