Subject: Minimal x86 memory requirements
Date: Mon, 14 Feb 2011 16:33:25 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4D59C9D5.4080909@linux.intel.com> (raw)
I'm looking to build a bare minimum x86 kernel that will boot and run
busybox, nothing else (and eventually less than that). Assuming I do
need USB-HID, IDE, and basic TCP/IP, what should I expect to be the
least RAM I could get away with just to boot off flash, get a getty,
login, and take a few directory listings.
If anyone would like to point me where to RTFM, that would be
appreciated as well :-)
