Yes, I'm really happy about this achiefment, this was the reason I bought
Redhat 6.0 but that consumed too much space (500Mb) even without installing
anything.
Later I started to comtumise DOSlinux from kent robotti, but it is also 18
Mb, and no ready to go samba in it.
I 'm glad I found muLinux, it complete, tiny and easy to adapt to special
whishes.
And most of all, I thank all of you who helped with mailing me the answers I
needed.

One more question: is there a howto about the scriptlanguage we use with
ash?
If yes, where is it?

I think this solution might be something fine for LOTS OF PEOPLE.

What would you think about writing a little Mini-HOWTO and/or
setting up a sample disk to let share others the result of your
tricky work?

(Only if you don't mind! It's just an unimportant idea of mine
 but I thought it might be a *good* extension for muLinux...)
