Not directly. However Smoothwall is a Firewall on a CD but will require 
some HD space. My setup is a hand-rolled version of Mandrake 7.2 SNF 
(although 8.1 I believe has rpms for it)

Something like the LRP project would be a good base. Find a recently 
updated one (so you know its under active development) and make the 
changes. The beuaty of the drivers is you don't need to change kmuch at all 
(maybe a USB enabled kernel) because it uses a standard kernel and a 
standard pppd which will be one the system

Have a go at building a disk. It won't be that hard and you'll of learnt 
something in the process. I'll be hanging out on IRC this evening (stsquad) 
so keep and eye out if you want any help or advice.

Alex.
