I have thought about it a little. What I need most is an existing
(minimal) diskless Linux system which I can steal and modify.
Desiderata include:
1) Open source (obviously)
2) Actively maintained
3) Support for booting from floppy, CD, and network
4) Lots of network and disk drivers, with automatic hardware
detection
5) Easy to glom my own stuff onto; i.e., allowing customization with
minimal changes to the files as shipped
Actually, RedHat's installation disks fit the bill except for that
last item. Still, I will examine them sometime to see how hard they
would be to customize.
Does anyone know of a system which has most or all of these features?
I most especially want somebody else to worry about the drivers.
