超小型linux发行版 ttylinux 和 Tiny Core Linux

两个发行版大小都在10M左右

ttylinux 

This small system has an 8 MB file system and runs on i486 computers, but provides a complete command line environment and is ready for Internet access.

The goal this project is to make one of the smallest, up-to-date Linux systems, yet keep it similar to a larger distribution.

End users may want to use ttylinux on old computers for accessing the Internet, or bootable on a USB disk for a portable system. Developers may want to use ttylinux for their embedded systems.

ttylinux 的iso里面有kernel config, 可以作为编译kernel 的config模板, 同时提供完整的source包(内含busybox config文件)和build script, 适合学习

Tiny Core Linux

Tiny Core Linux is a very small (10 MB) minimal Linux GUI Desktop. It is based on Linux 2.6 kernel, Busybox, Tiny X, and Fltk. The core runs entirely in ram and boots very quickly. Also offered is Micro Core a 6 MB image that is the console based engine of Tiny Core. CLI versions of Tiny Core's program allows the same functionality of Tiny Core's extensions only starting with a console based system.

It is not a complete desktop nor is all hardware completely supported. It represents only the core needed to boot into a very minimal X desktop typically with wired internet access.

The user has complete control over which applications and/or additional hardware to have supported, be it for a desktop, a netbook, an appliance, or server, selectable by the user by installing additional applications from online repositories, or easily compiling most anything you desire using tools provided.
