These files constitute a new distribution named "Micro" and a=20 corresponding buildable image target: micro-image The "Micro" distribution/image is created because we feel that there is=20 a need for a truly tiny and clean distro and image definition in OE for=20 those users out there that needs a _very_ tiny Linux rootfs with=20 virtually nothing installed except busybox, libc, udev, and a few init=20 scripts. On arm the jffs2 image size is only 1 MB (uclibc based). No=20 bloat allowed. The micro-image is ideal for users who wants this type of tiny Linux=20 rootfs system with only a few custom applications added. It has been tested to build and run on the following machine types: * at91sam9263ek [glibc, uclibc] * x86 [glibc] As everything else OE it should build for most other machine types as=20 well (no guarantee of course). The micro distribution/image is inspired by the "minimal" distro and=20 image configuration - but it takes that one step further as contents are=20 heavily stripped down and non needed definitions removed. Thanks to=20 those who contributed to minimal distro - good work. More details on micro can be found in the following wiki: http://dev.doredevelopment.dk/wiki/OpenEmbeddedMicro Note: It is still work in progress and there are things to improve on=20 the todo list (see wiki). We intend to maintain this distro/image in the future - please pull :) Thanks.
