   please drop me mail if anyone want. 
   .tar.gz takes 6.5MB, uncompressed 12MB, without kernel (compile yourself).

   can be easily cut down much more, but now it have lots of useful tools
   like sshd etc..

   anyway fits on 40MB disk without problems



Or, nearly, on a 32MB CF card in a PCMCIA slot.  Although, the booting
part might be a trick, as I doubt most BIOS's would treat a "secondary"
IDE controller as a valid booting device.  Maybe coupled with a floppy??
