Hi All,

I want to create a diskless system on the arm32, which I
have got working by building a ramdisk image into the kernel
and loading md0 at boot time. This works fine - however, I
have noticed that when we load our own gcc compiled
programs, we also need to put ld.so, libc and other files
onto the ramdisk, which takes up valuable space - is there
any way of compiling or otherwise so that programs are
"standalone"?

Thanks
  Bruce
