EPU will compress files, but unless you add the words ("arguments") NOEXAMINE and/or NOEXNEXT at the end of the line "EPU Device DFX", directory utlities and LIST will read the file and/or directory as being their original size, when they're actually compressed. Which is possibly your case – you may have successfuly compressed your files and don't know it. But I'd written an inquiry about EPU myself about the same time you did. Our Czech cousin's technical English leaves something to be desired. I've been trying to figure out the techniques to put together a compressed hard disk myself. Your idea, which appears to be to make a compressed basic bootable disk, then boot up compressed and proceed from there seems plausible, but I was czeching around myself to see how to do that. Please advise if you're successful, and give a painstakingly simple narrative of your solution, if you arrive at one. Thanks.
