Why not try LEAF or Embedian? I use LEAF and it works well. Will take you a
while to get used to it as opposed to standard RH kind of distro. The LEAF
site is pretty good. I can also help you offlist, if need be. I'm also the
maintainer of the QoS and bridging chapters on the LEAF Users Guide. 

Warm regards

	Hello All. 
	
	I've built some boxes for QoS that work wonderfully. Much thanks to
everyone's work on this project. Citrix + Videoconferencing are working
great. 
	
	Thing is, I'd really like to not rely on the old 4GB drives in these
machines. I would like to build a kernel small enough to put on a 32 or 64
MB flash (compressed). Fedora Core 1, minimal install + bridge-utils is
still around 500 MB (will probably be about 1/3 that compressed). 
	
	TIA
