hello, Im pretty green when it comes to linux, but im pretty sure this idea of mine is possible and has been done before, but I was hoping that maybe one of the more expierenced linux users out there might help me along : ). Im getting a dell laptop in a week or so, and an orinoco goldcard, and I plan to build an antennae. What i want to do is have a bootable cd with linux installed on it, that will have all of my device drivers, and all of the tools I need for stumbling, pre installed, so that when im out and about with my laptop, or when Ineed to use some software that requires linux, all I have to do is boot up the cd, hopefully it could access my fat partition for log files and such, or maybe it could run using a ram drive? if all im doing is using stumbling tools, 256megs should be plenty then I could save the logs to a floppy and bring them in windows like that, but I think a distro that will access fat would be the best idea, maybe we can make a template distro, then all that other users would have to do, is gather all the drivers they need, and burn it. anybody feeling generous? hehe
