I don't want to transfer files back and forth from my router, apparently
with the Oxygen release you can have it load files via tftp from a tftp
server, so instead of requiring two floppy disks, I can just stick one
in, and then load whatever else I need via tftp.
I could take this one step farther too, and see about booting the kernel
via tftp as well. So you could essentially go floppy less and hard drive
less on your lil' lrp router. Plus you really wouldn't have to really
worry about fitting everything onto one little floppy either. :)
I've gotten everything I really need to fit onto one floppy, although
the booting of .lrp packages sounded cool and wanted to know if anyone
has done it. Basically I know you can do it, so I want to do it. :)

Instead of enabling ftp on a router, why not add sshd and you can
transfer
files back and forth using Putty.
There is even a graphical windows client that will securely transfer
files
to and from your router - iXplorer. It is easy to use, its graphical,
its
secure, and its free. It looks like a graphical ftp client but uses
ssh.
I don't use it that often, but occasionally it comes in handy to the LRP
box. Don't need to add any software to the LRP, just uses the existing
sshd
connection.
