Hi,

Currently we are reassessing whether or not the Headless image meets
the requirements for a small, fast, useable image for board
verification. Just for information the current stats as of 2011-01-21
are:

 * Download Size: 64M
 * Download size with OMAP3 hwpack: 100M
 * Package count: 260

The list of package currently on the image can be found at:

https://wiki.linaro.org/Platform/Foundations/Specs/HeadlessImage#Package List

The current thoughts are to cut this image down as much as possible
whilst still retaining the ability to boot to a command prompt. The
new image would be a 'nano' image and would be useful for verifying
that the hardware boots. For a more complete console-only image for
developers a full-featured developer image would be created. See my
other email entitled "Call for opinion: Linaro 'Developer' Image" 
for that.

Is anyone *really* against this idea and is satisfied with the
Headless image in its current state? Opinions? Thoughts? Criticisms?

Regards,
Jamie.
