I was thinking about this too.
Got a 486, 2 LAN cards that I recently got, and i'm going to get a
cable for them as soon as I can.
Was going to keep that 486 DOS based, but I dont think that its possible
to make it a gateway with DOS.. which means: Linux. Which means: oops,
I dont know Linux that good!.. which in turn means: I'm lost! :)
I need to somehow make that 486 run on Linux, while all the 486 got is
a 4G drive (which leaves 2G for Linux if I terminate drive D:), and
4MB of RAM. All I got is Mandrake 6.x and Red Hat 5, 6.2, and SuSE 6.1.
All of them are on CDs, all of them are "hard disk hogs" unless you know
enough on how to install it efficently. And guess what? I dont. :)
So far I concider myself lucky because I managed to learn how to browse
the directories and execute programs in the consule. Unfortunatly,
thats about sums up all my knowledge in Linux.
