Check the assorted branches of the LEAF (Linux Embedded Appliance Firewall) Project <a href="http://leaf.sourceforge.net/">http://leaf.sourceforge.net/</a> Or if you need something that supports a wider range of applications check out Devil Linux: <a href="http://www.devil-linux.org/home/index.php">http://www.devil-linux.org/home/index.php</a> It started out as a firewall and grew. By default it boots from CD, but you could trim it back and boot from flash. <div>On 5/3/07, Brian Fahrlander <<a href="mailto:brian@fahrlander.net">brian@fahrlander.net</a>> wrote:<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"> -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I'm looking into PC104 hardware for my trailer project (<a href="http://CounterMoon.org">http://CounterMoon.org</a>) and I want something small, so it can be on for weeks while disconnected from shore power. PC104 has cheap parts, parts that run on +5V only, require no fan, and they're nice and small. A Linux to go with them has to be small, also; there's Eagle and DSL, but most of these are targeted at "live" CDs and such. And I love the organization of Ubuntu, package updates, and being able to admin the thing in a way I'm already pretty good with. Would it be crazy to do a minimal install of Ubuntu on a 386 with 8M of RAM, and a couple of laptop drives in a software RAID? I plan to collect a lot of GPS 'bread crumbs" along the way, and don't want'em to get lost... I'm sure install will take something special until I get the DOC (Disk On Chip) for the /boot partition, but once it's there I should be able to upgrade it nice and easy. Anyone done this? - -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Brian Fahrländer Christian, Conservative, and Technomad Evansville, IN <a href="http://Fahrlander.net/brian">http://Fahrlander.net/brian</a> ICQ: 5119262 AOL/Yahoo/GoogleTalk: WheelDweller ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.2.2 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - <a href="http://enigmail.mozdev.org"> http://enigmail.mozdev.org</a> iD8DBQFGOmeR6PLtRzZbdhYRAmLAAJ9+eCD1EYVhrQJsP16GnqIWjZmUQQCfe3V4 aV7wmS3X+z8AxnEd5n5llmk= =nZ/M -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- ubuntu-users mailing list <a href="mailto:ubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com"> ubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com</a> Modify settings or unsubscribe at: <a href="https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-users">https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-users</a> </blockquote></div> -- Drew Einhorn
