[linux-dvb] diskless vdr distribution

[Clemens Kirchgatterer <clemens@root.at>]

finally i have got the latest dvb drivers and vdr-0.93 working.
thanx to the developers for their graet work.

to give something back to the community i have built an
vdr-on-nfs-root-diskless distribution. i have worked very hard to throw
away all uneeded things and i think, i ended with the absolute smallest
possible vdr system. maybe there are 1 or 2 inodes still hidden
somewhere? ;-) the root file system is 3,3MB small (the tar archive has
only  1,3MB) and contains everthing needed to run vdr (dvb drivers,
lirc, libs, ...). the distributin is based on suse7.0 that means binaris
and libs are simple copied over to the nfsroot system. ofcourse you can
make it booting from harddisk also. just copy a kernel on it and install
lilo.

so, if someone is intrested in such a thing i will write a little howto
and put the hole thing somwhere on the net.

best regards ...
clemens
