- profmonocle 11y agoWell, the ISO includes the Linux kernel. A Docker image only comes with user space components since the host provides the kernel, so an ISO would need to be larger.
- steeve 11y agoBoot2docker creator here (although I don't actively maintain it) TCL is only 9 mb, oh which the kernel is 4mb if my memory serves me well. So most of the size is likely not due to the kernel (modules maybe?) I'd like to see an Alpine based b2d though
