Thanks for the suggestions.

I wonder if I could boot from my digital camera (with a USB memory stick). The one I have right now is only 16MB... but I may be aquiring a larger one fairly soon.

I thought about installing another distro first, but wanted to see how far I could get without.... it seems so close right now.

Im thinking of ditching the lfs project and install gentoo to see what I can learn.

BTW, no zip drive here =/

Any other suggestions of floppy linux distros that would have cd support?

if i do have an odd nic (but it claims to support linux) how would i get support on to a floppy distro. I guess before all the candy coated linux apps helped me out.... and i havent really seen anything around the net or in the books i got to help out with network cards that dont just show up at eth0.

scyther> I can see how /dev/cdrom could just being like a helpful link... but what should i look for to mount my cdrom drive?
