It's not only possible, it's even sufficient - as long as you have enough RAM (8 MB absolute minimum) and don't want persistent logging on the machine. On a floppy you can hold a 400K Linux kernel and around 2.5 Mbyte of a compressed ramdisk for the OS to run. This is even sufficient to plug in HiSax, isdn4linux and the required binaries to make the Linux box a P50 clone (somewhat). Good arguing (sp?) whether this is desirable ;) You should have some backups of this floppy, though ;-> -- Kanther-Line: PGP SSH IDEA MD5 GOST RIPE-MD160 3DES RSA FEAL32 RC4 +-o-+--------------------------------------------------------+-o-+ | o | \\\- Brain Inside -/// | o | | o | ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ | o | | o | Andre' Beck (ABPSoft) beck@ibh-dd.de XLink PoP Dresden | o | +-o-+--------------------------------------------------------+-o-+ ++ Ascend Users Mailing List ++ To unsubscribe: send unsubscribe to ascend-users-request@bungi.com To get FAQ'd: <<A HREF="http://www.nealis.net/ascend/faq">http://www.nealis.net/ascend/faq</A>> </PRE> <!--X-MsgBody-End--> <!--X-Follow-Ups--> <!--X-Follow-Ups-End--> <!--X-References--> <HR> <STRONG>References</STRONG>: <UL> <LI><STRONG><A HREF="msg09218.html">Re: (ASCEND) NAT on P75 for 200 workstations (yeah, really...)</A></STRONG></LI> <UL> <LI><EM>From</EM>: Jake Messinger <jake@ams.com></LI> </UL> <LI><STRONG><A HREF="msg09242.html">Re: (ASCEND) NAT on P75 for 200 workstations (yeah, really...)</A></STRONG></LI> <UL> <LI><EM>From</EM>: Phillip Vandry <vandry@Mlink.NET></LI> </UL> </UL> <!--X-References-End--> <!--X-BotPNI--> <HR> <UL> <LI>Prev by Date: <STRONG><A HREF="msg09472.html">Re: (ASCEND) P50</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Next by Date: <STRONG><A HREF="msg09470.html">Re: (ASCEND) Modem 7:8 bad last 8 calls</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Prev by thread: <STRONG><A HREF="msg09256.html">Re: (ASCEND) NAT on P75 for 200 workstations (yeah, really...)</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Next by thread: <STRONG><A HREF="msg09265.html">Re: (ASCEND) NAT on P75 for 200 workstations (yeah, really...)</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Index(es): <UL> <LI><A HREF="mail22.html#09471"><STRONG>Main</STRONG></A></LI> <LI><A HREF="thrd185.html#09471"><STRONG>Thread</STRONG></A></LI> </UL> </LI> </UL> <!--X-BotPNI-End--> <!--X-User-Footer--> <!--X-User-Footer-End--> </BODY> </HTML>
