See [Tiny Core Linux 15 stuffs modern computing in a nutshell • The Register](https://www.theregister.com/2024/03/04/tiny_core_linux_15/)  
There is often interest in running Lulia on embedded systems or systems with low resources.  
I guess Julia would work on this small resource distro as it has glibc. Has anyone tried it?  
Noting the default version is x86. x86-64 port is available, but seems to be not ready with latest version.

I would suggest against running Julia with less than 4GB RAM. The LLVM compiler is resource hungry.
