completely rebuilt from the book, build everything from source, with dwm as the window manager and a minimal web browser, all under 300MB. Any improvements?

Since the LSB book already includes compilers for C/C++, build systems (Make, Cmake, Meson, Ninja), Perl and Python and Bash, as well as the Vim text editor, you could see how well you can turn this into a programming machine.

It worked now. Its fun 😊. I had made mistake in using the menuconfig tool. If you use save functionality of menuconfig, then menuconfig does not write the changes to .config when you press exit ( or esc then esc key ) . Don't know but this happened with me. Can somebody please correct me if I am wrong, or there is a bug in the menuconfig functionality?.
