+## Multi-Binary Compilation
+
+To compile for systems without much space (floppy distributions etc), you can create a single binary. This will save disk space by avoiding repeated code between the various parts. If you are familiar with "busybox", it's the same principle.
+
+To compile the multi-binary, first `make clean` (if you've compiled previously), then
+
+```
+make PROGRAMS="programs you want here" MULTI=1
+```
+
+To use the binary, symlink it from the desired executable:
+
+```
+ln -s dropbearmulti dropbear
+ln -s dropbearmulti dbclient
+```
+etc.
+
+Then execute as normal:
+
+```
+./dropbear <options here>
+```
