Linux Floppy Firewall ???

[ROUTERKID1]

Guys has anyone created a Linux Firewall from a single floppy. I have been reading on this subject and it looks really cool. The system requirements are.

P2 16MB Floppy, no hard drive required.

The linux router project

used to exist for this purpose.

You should visit freshmeat

and search for "floppy firewall" I think you'll get some good results.

Please note that there are also CD-rom based firewall distros that might be slightly intersting. Your 16MB of RAM is really cutting it thin! I ran one on 32MB of ram well enough, never went to 16. Good luck!

I know about coyote linux, but I can't remember if iptables or ipchain is included in it. But worth the look.
