Doing just. Took Redhat 6.1 and created minimal tar balls of packages.
Stribed binaries and libs and no docs, man pages, etc. It's up and running
including networking in an 8MB partition. df tells me it's consuming about
5MB.

Compile util-linux, sysutils, shutils, ppp without PAM and shadow
password. Get's rid of a lot of libs. You can grab my work so far at:

No docs, though,except for some noted in 'FileList'...
