Ok, I did a little more stripping of the system and came up
with a image with dhclient, dhcpd, and 37K blocks of free
room to actually configure it on a 1680K disk. This image 
should now fully replace the other two images I made using 
the same space.

Here is the image:
http://leaf.sourceforge.net/devel/guitarlynn/images \
/dachstein-v1.0.2-ipsec-full-1680.bin

To get modules that aren't on the disk, get them here:
http://lrp.steinkuehler.net/files/kernels/Dachstein-small/modules/


The big loser this time was local.lrp (which isn't used on the
floppy anyway) and all NIC modules except pci-scan, tulip, 
and 3c509. Aside from the stripped modules, everything should
be fully functional.

The tulip module happens to be one of the larger (and most
used) modules, so many people will have to load the modules
they need and get rid of the ones they don't that exist on the
disk. I have left the most commonly used ip_masq modules
on the disk, so the same space requirements apply for these 
modules as well. I did this for a safe default space figure, for
instance you can pretty much load the entire "8390.o" 
modules (8390, ne.0, ne2k-pci, etc...) in the same space as
the tulip module alone. You'll have to gauge for yourself if
real audio, ICQ, and serial.o are possible with this image. 

I'm also looking at implementing udhcp as Charles thought 
it might make a sizable replacement for dhclient and dhcpd.
It appears that 50-60k might be gained if it works acceptably.
This extra space would make it possible to make a custom 
ppp/pppoe image, which will not be possible IMHO on a 
1680-ipsec image at this time. We'll see how it goes ....

I hope this pretty much fits the bill for this experiment, for now!
Enjoy!

If linux isn't the answer, you've probably got the wrong question!
