Debian based root fs

[Wouter Morgan <morgan@bluecube.co.za>]

Hi

I'm in the process of building a Debian based root filesystem to be used 
on a i386 processor. I did a lenny bootstrap and removed the following:
/usr/doc
/usr/info
/usr/man
/usr/share/doc
/usr/share/info
/usr/share/man
and also unused components in
/usr/share/locale
/usr/share/zoneinfo

The problem is that it is still over 80MB in size. What other tricks do 
some of you know of to get the system even smaller. Don't need anyting 
special, just to run an in house developed binary as well as ssh and ppp.

Any advice or a point in the right direction would be welcome.

Regards
Wouter
