Hello group, |
2 |
|
3 |
I'm trying to build kind of a minimal gentoo setup with X support. All I |
4 |
need is |
5 |
|
6 |
- X11 and a Window Manager |
7 |
- Mozilla Firefox |
8 |
- Lighttpd |
9 |
|
10 |
I use Gnome at this time. |
11 |
|
12 |
du reports the following directories as the biggest directories on my |
13 |
system: |
14 |
|
15 |
/usr/lib 418 MB |
16 |
/usr/portage 1200 MB |
17 |
/usr/share 550 MB |
18 |
/usr/src 560 MB (Kernel Sources) |
19 |
|
20 |
The other directories are very small. |
21 |
|
22 |
I think, the system is quite heavy in size, isn't it? I really would |
23 |
like to be able to shrink it down but not loosing functionality. |
24 |
|
25 |
Now I'm looking for tips to reduce disk consumption further. I've |
26 |
already cleaned /usr/portage/distfiles. |
27 |
|
28 |
I read that removing the whole /usr/portage after setting up the system |
29 |
is not a good idea. Is that true? |
30 |
|
31 |
May be someone could recommend a better window manager (smaller in size, |
32 |
stable)? |
33 |
|
34 |
I really appreciate any kind of recommendation to this topic. |
35 |
|

Kind regards, |
