Okay, I finally made it. I can
run arch on that tiny laptop.
Allright, it autoboot in console
that's a good start. Installed
fbterm, with a nice background
image and some sort of transparency
for the other tools I use.
I've been pretty good at making
a comfortable text only life!
Connecting my cellphone in USB
to connect to the internet
and post this...
Now what?
I feel a bit of a cheat on this
challenge as I have been
reducing my computer usage
to a very minimal sets of tools:
vim, mutt, mpg123, phetch, ssh, w3m
The memory and cpu aren't much
of a problem, hence the desire
to have an even more minimal
system on hand and see what
could be my bare minimum.
I've discovered jonsharp's gopher
hole (gopher.jonsharp.net) where
he build hand made comptuer.
I really like the idea :D
But for now, I want to go further
into minimalism. I'll setup to
try to install an even smaller
OS in the next days. I'm quite
interested in openWrt, but
I'll see what I can dig.
At one point, just using no-computer
life would be one goal. But I like
the idea to have an online tribe,
to gather, share and communicate.
