Three floppy-based distros
,----[ Quote ]
| This might sound strange, but I generally
| donât endorse the floppy distros that are
| still available here and there on the
| Internet, and as a general rule, still work
| fine. I donât hold any prejudice toward them,
| but I find that theyâre out of date, intended
| for specific hardware arrangements, or just a
| bit too â personalized.
|
| [...]
|
| Probably the one floppy distro that I would
| consider keeping around is blueflops, and
| itâs for that same reason â hardware support.
| Another two-floppy adventure, this one lists
| quite a few network cards as options,
| particularly for desktops. And since
| blueflops has the 2.6.18-ck1 kernel, I would
| almost consider using that as a jumping-off
| point for upgrading to a current kernel.
| Almost.
|
| blueflops says it will run on an i386 with
| 8Mb and swap, and Iâve tried it on machines
| with only 16Mb and gotten fair results. The
| software list isnât as long as some of the
| others, but it will probably get you online
| and from there, you can decide on your
| direction.
