I believe Cass is correct about LEAF. Runnign Linux in 4 MB is tough under 
any circumstances; it is hopeless with RAMdisk-oriented versions like all 
forms of LEAF.

More than other distros, Slackware maintained for a long time a variant 
designed to work in 4 MB. It may still do. Check either www.slackware.com 
or www.slackware.org for help with this. Some of the very old, tiny 
distros, such as Monkey Linux, may also be of help; look for them at ibiblio.
