Michael,
For the moment, please don't go posting any links to that minimal image.
I'm still working on a few things. Regular users really need a GUI image
for it to be useful to them. I will post a link to an xfce image
tomorrow, and after a little development testing, that could be an image
for public consumption. But having 10's or 100's of users downloading
that 1st minimal image, if a link were to be posted on the Pi Forum,
.... will end up being diverting my attention from making sure the
images have a supporting repo, for keeping them up to date with RPi
development, rather than just stagnating with the firmware/kernel the
original image was created with.
I've spent time today, reducing the requirement to ship pre-compiled
binaries, to just the 2nd and 3rd stage VC boot loader binaries in /boot
partition, everything else being compiled from source and delivered via
the rpm mechanism, in a Fedora compatible manner. At the moment that
update repo is piggybacking on a server that will not support many
users. It needs moving, which I will do tomorrow.....
Regards
Clive
