I did this with 2.0. I can check later to see what I put on it, but what I did was take the 2.0 boot disk, replace the kernel with a smaller one tailored to my hardware and include basic utilities. I had ifconfig, route, slattach, init, sh, and a little program I threw together to talk to the modem. Of course, ppp might put you over the limit ;-) The machine was a 16MHz 386 original Tandy 4000 w/4M RAM (though I think it also ran in 2M). With 16550-equipped serial ports, it ran like a champ. -Dan
