I need to add java to some Dell thinclients. Without java the image is
about 460M. With Suns disto of java it adds another 160M to the image.
Is there a slimmer version of jre that I can install? I really just
need javaws working. Looking though the package I dont see any
sufficient savings from deleting any of the obvious things. Most of
the bulk is in the lib directory, but I'm not really sure what I can
delete from there. Any suggestions?
