   Hola Benny,   
      
    BP> singles day btw   
      
   Rememberance Day here in Canada; 11th day, 11th month, 11th hour.  Looking at   
   the clock on the wall that will be in just under a half hour from now.   
      
    BP> why lto enabled ?   
    BP> why zlib ?   
      
   I didn't disable lto, only bootstrap and multilib, and used the system's zlib   
   rather than the source's.  Before I bootstrap it I'll give more thought and   
   experimenting with what should be disabled.  Same with the kernel as I used   
   the defaults from "make bcmrpi3_defconfig" instead of going through all the   
   options of "make menuconfig".  Also the kernel source is the rpi-4.19.y branch   
   from https://github.com/raspberrypi/linux rather than the usual kernel source   
   from kernel.org.   
      
    BP> yes time to test how unstable it is takes more time   
      
   Exactly.  I'll tempt the fates later.  Also I am going to add a real time   
   clock which will make the init scripts more in line with a regular system and   
   I won't have to use any speciallized scripts to compensate for what should be   
   a standard piece of hardware (RTC) on all computers.  At the moment I am   
   querying a ntp server to get the datetime but it needs to be independent if I   
   am going to make it mobile, which is part of the plan.   
      
    BP> wish it was here localy   
      
   It could be.  Totally up to you how much effort you want to put into it.  I am   
   still working on documenting everything I have done thus far and am more than   
   willing to share.   
      
    BP> its better then funtoo :)   
      
   So far it is the best I've seen.   
      
   Note that I now have replying to msgs working on it.  :-)
