Its just a mostly bare install, less than a GB of space used to run. There are still a few packages I can likely clean off, but there is nothing there beyond what you have compiled already at least. I can put the image file on Google drive (I could host the image on the centos pi itself to allow a download, but I only have 1mbit upload speed), that way you can at least mount it and see what is there, or i can just dump the installed package list for you. I will look into slimming it up even further, but is there a specific goal in mind for the minimal rootfs: is it a size goal, or simply "all thats needed to boot, take a keyboard as input, and access yum repos on a network"? Getting it working was step 1, at least its proof that your hard work is paying off :) Do we want anyone else to be able to download the image as well in order to look for major faults yet, or wait until the next phase when you have a rootfs built?
Well, you can upload it where you can, and then I can grab it and put it somewhere else (like buildlogs.centos.org ? ) so that people can have a look and test it. What I'd like to see though is also documenting that on wiki.centos.org. For example, have you used the kernel-4.0.0 rpm package built and available in the c7-buildroot (http://armv7.dev.centos.org/repodir/c7-buildroot/kernel/), or have you used the one from another distro ? etc .. So if someone has expertise with specific boards, we can all write/centralize that on the wiki, so that we can then eventually automate the various .img files creation, for all kind of specific boards, etc ..
Do you have already have a wiki account ? We can use a generic "entry" page for arm32 (like the existing http://wiki.centos.org/SpecialInterestGroup/AltArch/Arm32 page) , but moving content like plague builder access somewhere else (a sub-page) and do something like /Raspberry1 , or /Odroid , etc ..)
What do you (all) think ?
