The world's smallest Linux system-ttylinux experience

Ttylinux's official website: http://ttylinux.net/

Simple translation:

You are currently visiting the Ttylinux home page, a very small gnu/linux system for a variety of CPU architectures. The smallest ttylinux system is only 8MB in size and can run on a i486 machine with 28MB of memory, so the system also provides a complete command-line environment and access to the Internet.

The goal of this project is to create a minimal modern Linux operating system similar to other large distributions. Building a ttylinux system is a very interesting thing.

End users can use Ttylinux to access the Internet on older machines, or as a portable operating system that can be launched from a USB stick. Developers can use Ttylinux as an embedded operating system, or use Ttylinux to develop their own Linux version.

The translation is a bit lame, but the general meaning is this.

We can experience this lovely operating system in the virtual machine.

First, download the image

Using a disk image in VDI format

Recommended Choice Dynamic Assignment
