Minimal Linux Live is a set of Linux shell scripts which automatically build minimalistic Live Linux OS with basic network support via DHCP. The generated operating system is based on Linux kernel, GNU C library and BusyBox. All necessary sources are automatically downloaded and all build operations are fully encapsulated in the shell scripts.

The most recent development version of MLL (short for Minimal Linux Live) introduced Linux kernel 4.13.3, GNU C library 2.26 and BusyBox 1.27.2. MLL also provides two new overlay bundles:

* ZLIB - a software library used for data compression.

* Open JDK - the open source version of the Java development kit.

With the addition of ZLIB as overlay bundle both Open JDK and Oracle JRE/JDK are fully functional in MLL environment. You can check the most recent MLL development in GitHub:
