al@30 6 ## Tiny SliTaz goals
al@30 7
al@30 8 Useful software, expansible, easy to configure, runs fully in RAM, simple, light
al@30 9 and fast for minimum hardware resources, i.e. fits on one floppy disk (IDE disk
al@30 10 optional), runs on a 386SX processor and needs as little memory as possible
al@30 11 (currently 4MB with a 2.6.14 Kernel).

al@30 15 ## Why this builder?
al@30 16
al@30 17 Tiny SliTaz should be as small as possible. Only the necessary software is kept.

al@30 21 ## How is it built?
al@30 22
al@30 23 Tiny SliTaz uses a Linux Kernel with an embedded filesystem. An extra initramfs
al@30 24 can also be loaded with the configuration files and extra packages.
al@30 25
al@30 26 The initramfs is based on [uClibc](http://uclibc.org/) (instead of glibc) and
al@30 27 busybox with its config files and filesystem tree from `base-tiny` package you
al@30 28 can find in the `wok-tiny` repository.
