The -b option for create_compressed_fs may give you a smaller image file, but with the penalty of a bit slower loading.  This is normally okay for data, but may not be a good idea for executables unless you have a lot of memory available to allow the use of "toram" boot option.  Compression is 12 times slower too (example, 15 minutes without -b becomes 3 hours with -b).  On this, I'd suggest that you create prototypes without the -b first and target for 55MB (10% is the best savings I was able to get so far).

Sorry, but isn't making DSL into a LAMP distro sort of silly?  We have plenty of them already.

Why not use webmin as the web interface? Is it too big?

It seems like there is no reason for reinventing the wheel...

WEBMIN is light..you dont need a desktop especially if you are going to be running a webserver...

I use WEBMIN to manage my webserver and it works good, especially if you strip out all the useless garbage and modules that dont belong there. the RPM is 8.6meg, and you could remove tons of other stuff...namely the desktop crap..

yep
i got webmin small enough eventually.
iso is still 54mb, but everything works.
also:
i made the scripts so that if there is not sufficient memory for mysql and apache then mysql is not run and can be started manually and monkey is used instead of apache. this means it will work on even the slowest of hardware.
