Streaming radio with Midori

I have Midori Linux 'M4ia-2.3pre.img' running on my IA-1 with the driver for the linksys 100m usb/ethernet device.
It's a really cool compilation and it runs great.

Now I would like to hear streaming radio.
There is RealPlayer for Linux but I don't know how big it is and if there would be enough space to put it on the 16mb flash (maybe an additional cf card is needed?)
How could it this be realized?

BTW: Has anybody Phoenix running on Midori?
After using Phoenix on Windows, I hate all the spam-popup-Windows that are coming with Opera, and I didn't find any configuration switch to solve this nasty problem.

Maybe I should try to copy the image on a bigger flash and mount an additional partition to it where I could put Phoenix and RealPlayer on it. Could this work?

Any hints would be appreciated.

realplayer is definitely too big to fit in the 16MB image. But, you can put realplayer on a CF card. You'll probably want to edit /usr/local/sbin/init to automatically mount the cf card (eg. mkdir /tmp/cf ; mount /dev/hdc1 /tmp/cf). Then, install realplayer to the cf (cd /tmp ; wget http://m4i.homeip.net/m4i/pub/extras/realplay8_minimal.tgz ; cd /tmp/cf ; tar -xzf ../realplay8_minimal.tgz). Put a softlink to RealPlayer8 in /usr/local (eg. ln -s /tmp/cf/RealPlayer8 /usr/local/) and finally, link the binary (ln -s /usr/local/RealPlayer8/realplay /usr/local/bin)

Now, you should be set to go. I think Opera will automatically find realplayer (maybe not- you might have to configure it).

cheers,
bob
