Having a automated script to produce virtual machine images is a huge step in the right direction. Personally I think size (1.4 GB) could be optimized but it was pointed out in previous discussions that size is not a major concern for mainstream development. On the other hand with virtual machines resources of the host are split. Maybe some ideas from the sage-lithe VM prototype (407 MB) http://sage.math.washington.edu/home/emil/sagelithe/vm-sage-lithe-a1.zip could be utilized. In itself this version is not optimized yet (e.g. full xorg and xvesa) regards emil -- To post to this group, send an email to sage-devel@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send an email to sage-devel+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-devel URL: http://www.sagemath.org
