Re: [coLinux-devel] Memory size and killing console by Esc

[Richard G. <ric...@ri...>]

I don't know about 1 or 2, but I highly second the request for a different
image. I'd actually like to use Arch Linux; would being 686 targeted be a
problem? The package management sounds much like Debian and it sounds like
you could start with a fairly small image as well.

I tried to make one at work earlier but something happened with the
networking and I couldn't dd off the image :-)
