Creating a Bare Metal bootcd/livecd

Post by Julcar »

Hi all.

I am looking for the achivement of creating a bare metal version of ReactOS(either bootcd or livecd) by removing things "un-needed", the kind of "bloatware" that could be shipped in our current builds.

The main goal here would be to create a bootcd/livecd able to boot faster in slower vm's, and have less disk space requirements, as well less time to compilation (useful in self-compilation)

I would add the first items in my list:
  • Games
  • Multimedia drivers
  • USB U/E/O-HCI
  • Mouhid
  • Kbhid
  • Screensavers
  • Themes
What more?
