size of linuxbios

[paul]

Hi

How big is linuxbios? will 256K byte of flash do? I only have a flash 
burner that will burn 512k byte.
I need to know before I download the source.

Thanks

LinuxBIOS easily fits into 256k, even with etherboot as payload. But if
you intend to burn a Linux Kernel into flash as well, you need at least
1MByte (kernel 2.4+)

yes, 256KB is plenty for linuxbios + etherboot.
