Hi,

Linux in under 2 megabytes of RAM, even when running from ROM, is not a realistic goal. For context: linux 0.0.1 was developed on a 4 megabyte system in 1991. Swap support was added in december of that year so it could run on a 2 megabyte system.

After some research I came to the same conclusion. I guess I was on drugs when I tought that, since even a kernel compiled with almost nothing (not even BUG support) weights ~1.5 MB. It seems Linux is not aiming that low after all, however a little effort to try to un-bloat the current state of things can't hurt, right? Thanks, Ezequiel.
