Hi

I have a space limitation on old laptop (4Gig).
I there a way to install a samba mount client only since this machine does not share anything, it just browses.

net-fs/samba is 51Mb and net-fs/smbfs is only 403kB. :idea:

There's a module in the kernel(at least in the one I use ck-sources 2.6.16-ck11), you can compile it to add SMB support to mount.
