Hi,

I want to compile a minimal distribution of Linux that will still be able to run Xen (<8MB). What packages do Xen require? I see that e.g. Xenoppix requires grub, miniroot (minirt26.gz), the Linux kernel (linux26) and the Xen VMM. What other packages are required, e.g. is the 12MB Python package essential?

Regards,

Gerrit Niezen
