I ran out of time and energy, but remain interested in the ideas and technology behind it. I keep planning to resurrect it, especially as I have lots of time (unemployment can do that) and a Virtual PC on my Macintosh. It is interesting to note that to this day, one has to specify which packages to load - so that you have to remember to edit this file if you want a new package to load. With Oxygen, this is not necessary. It also uses a standard Linux kernel, and has split glibc apart so that you can upgrade glibc without having to rebuild the root.lrp.

The two you should take a close look at for wireless support are Bering uClibc and WISP-Dist. Bering and Lince should work for wireless also. Oxygen needs an update to be useful as a WAP. -- Mike Noyes http://sourceforge.net/users/mhnoyes/ SF.net Projects: ffl, leaf, phpwebsite, phpwebsite-comm, sitedocs --- This SF.net email is sponsored by: IT Product Guide on ITManagersJournal Use IT products in your business?

I made the switch from Oxygen for two reasons: A) Bering-uClibc appears to be the only product in active development right now, B) The Oxygen kernel is 2.2 based, Bering-uClibc is at 2.4.x. While I prefer the Oxygen boot model, I've also had success with building webcams, mp3 jukeboxes and the like with Bering and Bering-uClibc. Bering- uClibc has a new LEAF.CFG file that gives you much more flexibility in booting, so I'm not so sure that Oxygen is that much better anymore. YMMV.

Re: [leaf-devel] Bering uClibc vs. Oxygen
That's the way I'm planning on going:-) First, just to get comfortable, I'm using it for my own personal firewall (I've been using EigerStein). Then, I'm looking to replace my MeshAP distros. I'm not at all comfortable at all with the way that project is headed.
