You *can* also make your own. Depending if you like a one or
two floppy setup (if you own a ZIP or similar you can just throw
the stuff raw on it and mount it from your floppy) you have 1MB
to 1.8 MB (extra tracks/sectors) for a compressed ramdisk image.
That's enough to do a lot.
I admit that's mainly useful if you need/want special things
done and is *quite* a bit of work for the first time. You could,
however, make a ramdisk with all the special stuff you want/need,
compress it on a floppy and load&mount it from your favourite
floppy linux (unless you are short on RAM).
