I'm wokring on a gentoo-embedded/uclib-bering based ipsec cdrom |
| 2 |
firewall. (actually i'm wokring on the framework to build it) the cd |
| 3 |
is suppesd to run from RAM, with runtime modules loaded from cdrom (or |
| 4 |
network) at boottime and config from floppy (or USB stick) |

First I was thinking of building a gentoo live CD but that would |
| 7 |
require a reboot for every upgrade. So it has to be kind of |
| 8 |
bering/uclibc-bering. I'd like to be able to keep some good uptimes on |
| 9 |
those boxes :) |

Hardened kernel 2.6.7-r7, uclibc-0.9.26-r5 without stack-protector i |
| 12 |
think (how do I check?) and BusyBox v1.00-rc2 (I just renamed the |
| 13 |
busybox ebuild to get a newer version) |

Still its just the kernel booting and a busybox shell. |

But its a start. |

I'm not really sure if I want to make a brand new linux distro - there |
| 22 |
are too many of them already, but I don't really see any other |
| 23 |
alternatives. |
