I've been installing std Linux RH versions and have played around with Keeper-Linux (CD Bootable). I came across LEAF reference in Shorewall.
My objective: build a secure router/firewall/bandwidth manager system preferably without any moving components and a disk/fs component that would allow me to make the device read-only thro' physical means e.g. tabs, jumpers etc. I intend using a flash 8MB IDE module. I know and understand iproute2, tc, ipchains, iptables etc. I was looking at a good firewall script generator and I came across shorewall. I need a few pointers please. TIA for all help. ALL IDEAS on any of the above welcome. 1. Does LEAF always boot off floppy? Can I load it on a flash module that plugs into the IDE and make it boot off that piece? 2. Are the appropriate parts of the fs by default ro to prevent hacking? 3. Is there any doc or site or URL that helps a person like me understand how I can move from a regular distro to this smoothly.
