Funny, Stuart.
My processs is to always look at the size of a statically linked
binary to make a guess as to whether it could go onto the installer.
At the very least, it should fit.
(Whether it belongs there is a different question)
For this check, the vax is convenient. Binaries are still static.
They are actually smaller than they might be on other architectures,
so let's compare:
text data bss dec hex
1406523 42740 41692 1490955 16c00b
Wow. Only a small part of that is libc code that might be shared by
other stuff on the "instbin" binary which makes the install media
work.
Whereas the amd64 instbin binary, which contains EVERYTHING you need
to install is, today:
text data bss dec hex
1276644 35040 652568 1964252 1df8dc
Good luck making it fit.
