Ubuntu 8.04 jeOS (Just Enough Operating System) is 46mb download
http://www.jcinacio.com/projects/vmware-ubuntujeos-804/it runs much faster and with LAMP stack installed is just a little
over 600mb doing fine with 256 mb ram ... ill post if it gets hairy
but it seems much smoother than klutsy fibbon so far and includes
some of the functionality my 710 jeos appliance lacked
once you login follow these commands to have your 611mb
LAMP appliance that can run in 256 megs of ram. sweet.
sudo su
apt-get update
apt-get install ssh openssh-server
apt-get install apache2 mysql-server php5 libapache2-mod-php5 php5-xsl php5-gd php-pear libapache2-mod-auth-mysql php5-mysql
apt-get install perl libnet-ssleay-perl openssl libauthen-pam-perl libpam-runtime libio-pty-perl libmd5-perl
apt-get install phpmyadmin
apt-get install wget
wget http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/webadmin/webmin_1.370_all.deb
dpkg -i webmin_1.370_all.deb
apt-get -y --force-yes -f install proftpd
Can anyone think of anything else to throw in there?
pick standalone from proftpd install prompts
from webmin go to usermin configuration and
make sure you install usermin and
from there you can administrate just about
anything you dont know how to do in *nix
that should do ya and now you have a lamp server , voila!
