Release of Small Linux version 0.3.0

This is Linux Kernel 1.2.11 compiled for ELF executables.

The kernel will boot in less than 2 meg of ram, leaving
about 256 kb free for user programs.

I compiled this kernel on a Pentium 133 box with 64 meg of
ram. The box is setup with Caldera and kernel 2.0.33.
A typical compile takes about 15 minutes.

It has been tested on a 386sx box with 4 meg, hercules mono
monitor with 2 200 meg harddrives.

It was also tested on a 386 laptop with 2 meg of ram, 20 meg
hard drive and vga mono-chrome screen.

This kernel binary needs a linux hard drive /dev/hda1 to boot.

To compile I had to replace 3 files on my Caldera box:
/usr/bin/encaps  /usr/bin/objdump /usr/bin/objcopy

I tested plip networking successfully.

Have fun!

Here are the compile settings for the zImage binary.
