Not LEAF-based - no login security.  Specialized tool for network
security.

Requires 1.72M disks... breaks most floppies.

Not designed for network testing - specialized tool for system rescue.

Why not use:

Oxygen - http://leaf.sourceforge.net/pub/oxygen

Oxygen offers:
* Full flexibility
* Expanded tools - choose from network diagnostics, system rescue,
development, etc.
* Can be used to boot from CDROM
* Can load packages from network, multiple floppies, or other locations
- with or without pauses (and user-configured prompts)
* Has possibility of loading using TFTP, GOPHER, FTP, HTTP...
* Kernel has OpenWall patches added...

Development version adds:
* Much higher boot-time configurability:
  - Load configuration file from any disk
  - Specify any filename for configuration file
  - Tool used to decompress files can be configured (bzip2, zip,
gzip...)
  - Create any set of volumes, with any size
* Easy upgradability to glibc 2.2: just replace glibc 2.1 (libc.lrp)
package (and make rom.)

The development version is approaching a pre-release; I'd recommend
people try it if you are able.

Which is quite obvious!.   ;-)

Thought the question had to do with other possibilities other than
LEAF...

Oh well..
