Submitted by TimBruce on Thu, 2006-04-13 22:35.I'm a big supporter of the Freesco Linux Router project. I gave a presentation on it to the Portland Unix/Linux User Group (PLUG) in January 2003. If I can find the missing slides, I'll post them on this page.

It fits completely on a floppy disk (1.44 Mb) and can run in as little as 8 Mb of RAM. Obviously, if you have more memory or install it to a harddrive, you can greatly expand it's capabilities.
