I do have a few distros in my LinuxFormatDVD collection that might be suitable, some that fit on a floppy, one complete GUI distro that fits on a 128MB USB stick. Tell me more (like how big is the firewire disc, what other connection methods does the box have etc.) - off-list if you like. I'll have a hunt through the documentation of the super-small distros. -- Neil Williams ============= http://www.codehelp.co.uk/ http://www.dclug.org.uk/ http://www.isbn.org.uk/ http://sourceforge.net/projects/isbnsearch/ http://www.biglumber.com/x/web?qs=0x8801094A28BCB3E3
