This reduces the ramdisk installer size with a few megabytes when gzipped, but with about 40 MB when unpacked in memory. There are a few improvements possible: - strip the binaries. This saves another few MBs. - only copy the binaries we really need to /bin or /sbin. This could reduce the size of the installer a lot, especially with util-linux, of which we don't use that many tools at all. - try to move some packages we link with glibc right now (like util-linux) to dietlibc. This will not work for bash, already tried that. - try to use busybox as a replacement for everything. svn path=/nixu/trunk/; revision=4428
