Answers to: Installing Linux to a Mini-ITX boardhttp://linuxexchange.org/questions/898/installing-linux-to-a-mini-itx-board<p>I want to install Ubuntu 10.04 to a embedded board: Intel D201GLY, Celeron 1.33GHz, 1Gb DDR400 and 4gb compact flash. Is there a custom Ubuntu for embedded boards or do I have to do it? I tried to install the standard Ubuntu 10.04 from a USB drive to the flash drive on this board, but to my surprise the boot time is about 10 mins and so is the shutdown time. Ubuntu doesn't seem to find the wlan drivers either. Is there a way to boot faster? Possibly it is to use a CFS, i.e mount the compact flash read-only and then remount as a union with a ramdrive using tmpfs. What is the procedure for doing this?</p> <ul> <li>Slow CPU + very fast disk -> Compression might not be useful</li> <li>Fast CPU + very slow disk -> Compression may be useful</li> </ul>enWed, 20 Apr 2011 14:13:20 -0400Comment by rfelsburg on iceman's questionhttp://linuxexchange.org/questions/898/installing-linux-to-a-mini-itx-board#2463<p>Please accept an answer so the question/answer can be finished.
