= Project "tiniest"

This project is an experiment of building a tiny linux boot system
with a single, common syslinux boot configuration used for both legacy
bios and UEFI bios.

The script +mkit.sh+ prepares such a +bootimage.raw+ and the script
+vm.sh+ runs a Qemu VM for testing it.

.Program used by mkit.sh and vm.sh
----
ar awk bash cat chmod cp dd depmod dpkg fakechroot fakeroot find ln
mcopy mkdir mke2fs mkfs.fat mmd rm sed sfdisk syslinux tar wget xzcat
qemu-system-x86_64
----

* Kernel version +$VERSION+ is obtained from the linux-image-amd64
  dependency.

.Downloaded packages
----
busybox-static linux-image-$VERSION

.How to build
----
$ ./mkit.sh
----
Note that building will use +http_proxy+ if it's set.

.How to test legacy bios boot
----
$ ./vm.sh
----
Then push <escape> to select boot device menu; number 2 is
bootimage.raw.

.How to test UEFI bios boot
----
$ EFI=yes ./vm.sh
