Your experience will not go to waste. A lot of it will apply to Oxygen and EigerStein too. >For a firewall running from a _single_ floppy disk should I use >EigerStein2BETA which seems very simple to use or should I use Oxygen >which gives me the impression of being more secure?

From what I understand it's possible to run Oxygen from a single disk, but it was designed to run from two disks. If you want to run Oxygen, I'd suggest acquiring another floppy drive.
