A family of very small Linux distributions

Fovia

This is a fully standalone Linux distribution made to boot from an ED (Extended Density) floppy disk.

How?

I have found out the strats and ways to slim down BusyBox and the Linux kernel, then pack everything with XZ into a floppy disk. It can allow 64-bit distributions to fit in one disk.

_{^{The strats are defined here.}}

Why?

It is a fun project, but doesn't serve much purpose, as feature support is extremely limited.

_{^{Even NanoArch is more functional at this point.}}

Name?

The project name is derived from the Greek word "φοβία" (fovía), which is a member of the same family of projects started under https://i.lunah.online, the Phobic image host.

Logo?

I'm still branding this, you'll see this later.
