I have tried the following distros that can do what you want:
1. Superresecue 2.0 - http://www.kernel.org/pub/dist/superrescue/v2/
- Based on RH 7.1
2. Virtual Linux 0.8 - http://sourceforge.net/projects/virtual-linux/
- Based on Mandrake 7.2
3. Linux Bootable Toolbox 2.0 - http://lbt.linuxcare.com/index.epl
- Contains 2.4 kernel, XFree86 4.1, BlackBox WM, Mozilla 0.93 and more;
fits in a credit-card size CD or one of those mini-CDRs
All of the above have downloadable ISO images. Maybe jijo could add them
to his sell list?
Back to lurking,
Cap Leopando
