ha
This time its a curiosity that leads me to find out how to make a GNU/Linux
Distribution
of my own,that can fit in floppies.I have tried searching in sites but I
couldn't find
enough
information I could digest and make sense.
Please let me know how to make a GNU/Linux distro [or] where to get information
from.
Thanks a lot for reading through,
Regards Muthu

Read the first issue LFY . There's article about making a distro using Red .
Oh u mean , that can fit in a floppy. I suppose u didn;t use the right
keyword for searching. Try "Linux on a floppy" . I found lots of related
link. I got the manuals , but didn't execute my plan , Also ask Saha
[logonanand@xxxxxxxxx] , he has done it .
In short , u 'll need a customised kernel , a shell , the root filesystem
,may be an initrd .
"Seek and u shall find it" .
BTW , I rescued a system running win 2000 that couldn't boot due to
corrupted boot.ini using knoppix .[Thanks to knoppix ] .
Well , u can create it on a floppy so that u can use it for rescue purposes.
Guys tell me how the meeting yesterday was like
