Hi,

What is the intent of this build?

Thank you,
Armandooooo

Hi,

It is a compact distribution kit with quite extensive ports, the distribution kit itself is not overloaded with system logic and scripts.
Goal, to introduce the given distribution and its philosophy, as well as easy use on development boards.
If you remove unused firmware and modules, you can fit in 1GB nand.

Can it be used to boot to ram?
Use cases:

  • Abrupt poweroff: Since the hard disk is only momentarily used in read-only mode during boot, then never touched again, there are few or no negative consequences of an abrupt poweroff. If a system is used where power is inconsistent, or the system is regularly used in a context where fast shutoffs are required, this is very handy.
  • Privacy: Anything you do in this session are lost when you reboot or power off. This is great for kiosks or other systems where permanent modification are not desired.

With proper configuration, this can be implemented in any Linux distribution.
For this it is better to put fs in read mode, and make tmp and / var / log in tmpfs.
