     1.4 +# Tiny SliTaz
     1.5 +
     1.6 +Build your configuration from binary packages.
     1.7 +
     1.8 +
     1.9 +## Tiny SliTaz goals
    1.10 +
    1.11 +Useful software, expansible, easy to configure, runs fully in RAM, simple, light
    1.12 +and fast for minimum hardware resources, i.e. fits on one floppy disk (IDE disk
    1.13 +optional), runs on a 386SX processor and needs as little memory as possible
    1.14 +(currently 4MB with a 2.6.14 Kernel).
    1.15 +[Example](http://doc.slitaz.org/en:guides:pxe#why-use-pxe-the-vnc-example)
    1.16 +
    1.17 +
    1.18 +## Why this builder?
    1.19 +
    1.20 +Tiny SliTaz should be as small as possible. Only the necessary software is kept.
    1.21 +The package manager is run using this website.
    1.22 +
    1.23 +
    1.24 +## How is it built?
    1.25 +
    1.26 +Tiny SliTaz uses a Linux Kernel with an embedded filesystem. An extra initramfs
    1.27 +can also be loaded with the configuration files and extra packages.
    1.28 +
    1.29 +The initramfs is based on [uClibc](http://uclibc.org/) (instead of glibc) and
    1.30 +busybox with its config files and filesystem tree from `base-tiny` package you
    1.31 +can find in the `wok-tiny` repository.
