The 4MLinux 40 series.
This thread is for tracking the development of the 4MLinux 40 series.'
4MLinux 40.0 Core BETA released.
This is a core system (only about 15 MB in size) for the 4MLinux 40 series. The system includes: the Linux kernel 5.16.14, GNU C Library 2.35, and BusyBox 1.34.1. The 4MLinux 40 series uses GNU Compiler Collection 11.2.0 to compile programs designed for the x86_64 architecture.
Despite its extremely small size, 4MLinux Core supports both BIOS and UEFI boot modes.
