- bmacho 4y agoThe full OS was 1.4 MB, but they've distributed some additional software as well.
- lproven 4y agoWell, no, not really, AFAIK. But it depends what you define as "the full OS". It is mainly an embedded OS for routers and engine-control units and traffic lights. For that role, it doesn't need a GUI or a desktop or dev tools or a network stack. So are they part of the "full OS"? It depends where you stand, and how you look at it. The Demo Disk contains a lot more than 1.4MB of code. It's more like 3-4MB of code, but that does not mean it is "the full OS".
