Telemetry CDs: A Debian subset at openrock.net
We have generated a debian subset with a few modifications that can be
used to install a network monitoring station. Have a look at
http://openrock.net.
An iso image (based on potato) fitting to be burned on a credit card size
CD is available. To make that happen and fit all software into the 50MB
available the following was changed:
1. packages included in the base*.tgz are not included again.
2. removal of a lot of files and diverse kernel modules.
3. Do not include the full standard system.
4. Simplification of the installation procedure by removing dialogs and
setting some defaults.
I hope that the image is suitable for newbies....
The CD still contains
apache(ssl), perl, postgres, lots of networking tools, vim (full version),
joe, exim, mon, netsaint ....
Feedback appreciated. I plan to use these credit card size CDs for
promotional purposes.
