[Thincrust-devel] minimal rhel5

[Daniel Gomez]

Researching similar information I found the following:

Using the command 'appliance-creator' with roughly the same 
fedora-aos.ks config from "fedora-kickstarts" but modified for Centos, I 
created a minimal** 361M raw image for Centos 5.5. I attached the output 
of the build log called appliance-creator.log

**definitions on what is minimal differ.

For other VM images I saw using 'df' that:

+ Orange Jeos is 553MB - see 
http://orangejeos.sourceforge.net/orange-jeos-core-flavor.html

+ Eucalyptus* Centos is 606MB - see http://open.eucalyptus.com/ *The 
size of the out-of-the-box instantiable guest Centos VM image bundled 
with this product.

Hope this helps folks doing some R&D what is possible.

PS. Nice work on the Thincrust project.
