Ok, the striped down 1.2 GB virtual machine is available in the same link. Maybe some unneeded system utilities could still be removed, but i wouldn't expect more than a few dozen MB gained from that.
I have noticed that, when running under virtualbox and closing saving the state, everything continues to work perfectly after resuming the state (in some other virtual machines i have tried, the network, for example, stoped to work properly). So if in the manual of the windows version of sage we state that way to close the VM as the standard, bootup time is not that important. -- 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
